The women's and men's 100m finals highlight the second day of action at the 2023 USATF Outdoor Championships. Sha'Carri Richardson's world-leading 10.71 in the first round created plenty of buzz about what she can do in the semis and finals.

Friday also features the first round of the men's and women's 400m hurdles, the opening round of the women's 100m hurdles, the semifinals of the men's and women's 800m, semifinals of the men's and women's 400m, the conclusion of the decathlon and heptathlon and finals in the women's high jump and men's triple jump.

Women's 800m Semis

Two very balanced 800m heats produced eight women who ran between 2:00.02 and 2:00.85. Nia Akins won the first heat with Raevyn Rogers and Ajee Wilson comfortably earning the other two automatic qualifying spots. 

In heat two, Michaela Rose went out hard in 57.67 and held on for the win. Her quick pace helped pull four other women to qualifiers in that heat. Juliette Whittaker of Stanford was in position to be one of those qualifiers, before falling just a few meters before the finish line. 

A dramatic semifinal in the women’s 800m shook things up at USA Outdoors.

Michaela Rose won her section in 2:00.39, but a late fall from Juliette Whittaker prevented the Stanford freshman from making the finals.
