Don't tell OneNewsNow! (link) We actually saw that race on Saturday, happened to be watching the coverage of the Pre Classic.

Also from the link:

"It wasn't bad, but I was a little fatigued toward the end," Gay said.

"I was a little sloppy out of the blocks, but I was able to hold on," [Dix] added.

A little side-note:

The American left countryman Ryan Wilson (13.16) well behind in second spot.

Ryan went to Westerville North H.S. in the late 90's-early 2000's... he was a heck of a hurdler in high school and had a good college career at U$C. Good to see him succeeding on the professional scene.
