I went to school with anchor of the USA team Maybank in South Carolina. I actually raced him in summer school. He absolutely smoked me...LoL. Very proud of him!
What a run by Roger Black...good strategy he closed the gap but couldn't go over the top at the end. Watching this live , 12 year old boy. Memories! Greetings from Greece!

Maybank was a quality athlete - you would have to be on his shoudler to beat him. He knew that Black was a threat as he was very happy afterwards.
I saw the front end of your comment and thought hed won 😂 Sadly it didnt pan out like that
Crazy how Jamaica fell and still got a medal.
The smoothest forward roll I've ever seen 😂😊
My current summer track coach Lamont Smith was the 1st leg for the usa in this race!
James Baulch went to early in that second leg and cost Britain that Gold medal.
Maybank was a 43 second runner. His PB was half a second faster than Black's. UK had no chance unless they had 10-15 metre lead on last leg
@@chrisjames6327 Utter nonsense. Black ran faster on the last leg than Maybank.
Ah, the good old days....
Why wasn’t Michael Johnson on the team
ill at the time
I think that Michael Johnson was bagged after all of the 200 and 400 rounds.
Can Roger Black time it? Uh..no..
He had to make up about 6 -7 metres which is very hard and then have something extra to beat somebody like Maybank.
@@carolinehirst4921spot on. Maybank was a top athlete. Black and Maybank both split 43.87
