Jordan Hasay 4th in Poland

The young runner who won hearts in Eugene is the top finishing American in the 1500, and the winning time is slower than she ran in Eugene.

clipped from www.dyestat.com Day 6 - Booker 2nd in 110H; Jordan 4th in 1500 1,500 Meters The race opened up with the African runners going right to the front and then promptly slowing the pace, passing 300 meters in 54 seconds and 400 meters in 1:14.36, with Kalkidan Gezahegne of Ethiopia in front. As you might imagine, the gap between first and 12th was about five meters. During that time Alex Kosinski of Oregon and Jordan Hasay of Mission College Prep (San Luis Obispo, Ca.) were in 9th and 10th. With two laps to go, passed in 2:08.0, Gezahegne continued to lead with Ioana Doaga of Romania and Stacy Ndiwa of Kenya right behind. Hasay was in 11th and Kosinski in 12th. Meanwhile, Hasay, who had finished second in last year’s World Youth championship, also began to move, passing Kosinski and then Bridey Delaney of Australia and taking off after the top three but that proved to be a bridge too far.
