Marcus Krah and Amere Lattin made history last night at the IAAF World U20 Championships by becoming the second duo from one country to sweep the 110m hurdles in event history.
Krah won gold in 13.25 (+0.2) and Lattin took silver in 13.30; both times are new PBs.
The only other duo to sweep the 110m hurdles in meet history were Colin Jackson and Jon Ridgeon of Great Britain in 1986 in Athens. Krah is the third American to win this event; Antwon Hicks won in Kingston, Jamaica in 2002 and Aries Merritt won in 2004 in Grosseto, Italy.
