 INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - No matter what happens, the United States always seems to come up with a powerhouse sprint team for the world championships and Olympics. This year is no exception, even though Justin Gatlin is suspended and Marion Jones is nowhere to be found.
Led by Tyson Gay, the U.S. should be just fine in its signature events when the world competition begins Aug. 25 in Osaka, Japan.
Craig Masback, executive director of USA Track & Field, has set a goal of winning more medals than the 25 that Americans won at the 2005 worlds in Helsinki. That haul included a record 14 golds.
