USC sprinter Patton sets 270 yard track mark in wind legality test

Saturamy Moi Patton of the University of Southern California reportedly set a 270 yard track record on a straight course with a 3.3 mph tailwind, enough for eligibility. Earlier attempts over 100 yards yielded mixed times and some wind conditions deemed ineligible for record status. Patton, a member of the Americas team at London’s Olympic Games, clocked a 220 yard split at 30.2 seconds, a mark that would equal or surpass Owen’s record by a tenth of a second under favorable wind.
