@@chanler8046 our definitions of elite are not the same. She was a world class athlete but based on my definition i would class her elite . Elite is the creme de la creme to me.
@@TheVinceatkins Alford has not run against the best so give it a rest until she reaches her quest. Once she does, be my guest and get it off your chest.
@@TheVinceatkins we know Julien is in a league of her own but Leverne worked extremely hard and also won medals for St. Lucia I am supportive of my St. Lucian people. I guess that makes me different to others when they refer to elite.
Explosive start, powerful drive, crazy top end! She's built for greatness! I see her in the finals at the world championships. The kid's got a bright future.
She is possibly the most promising athlete competing in the NCAA at the moment, but a podium finish is a big ask in the solo events. They are so stacked and even though we've not seen much of Elaine and Shelly-Ann this year, finishing ahead of Marie-José, Sha'carri and Shericka won't be easy. On the plus side, she has a very good chance of a podium finish in the 4x1.
@@HovaSwerve St. Lucia, which I probably should have thought about before saying she had a good chance of a podium place in the relay. Not sure what I was thinking there.
She is from St. Lucia not Texas. She is studying in Texas. An absolutely amazing athlete. We all hope she continues to develop and dominate at the pro level in a few years
I watched her in the 23 outdoor track & field championship she was amazing. She got faster and faster as the competition continued. She will get even faster!!
3:30; Yeah noticed since indoors that Julien leans a little too early at the finish line which according to Coach Flo is cos they've been holding back on working on certain things (which will now be addressed) to keep her as fresh as possible for the WC in about 8wks time. She needs to rest & recover the rest of June, then run 2-3 DL Races in July in preparation for the WC in mid-August. Coach Flo also mentioned that she no longer plans to run the 200m @Major Champs cos of how much she hates it which I don't get cos you'd think running a bunch of 4x4s this year would've made it clear how much less of a pain the 200m is in comparison, plus she's passing up the chance of winning extra medals at future Global Champs since relay medals are going to be out of her reach with being from such a small island nation.
She undoubtedly has the ability to medal at the World Championships. However, I'm always concerned about collegiate athletes competing in the summer because it is such a long season for them (remember Terrence Laird). I just hope she has not peaked too soon.
Loved track and field when young. Ran an 11.17 - 100 yard in 7th grade at 12 years old. Was winning literally everything. Then parents got divorced. I never went back to track. Think it might have been a mistake, but my mind was in a different place. Years later started basketball and got a walk on position at UTEP as a point guard with team mates Tim Hardaway, Antonio Davis, Greg Foster and others. Track had taught me a first step that was so fast, I could not be guarded very well. Broken neck in a car accident that year ended that. All good memories all the same.
She’s so strong, so talented. I really hope she can work on her early lean, it takes so much away from her finish. Regardless she is running amazing times.
544th! It’s nice to see a female sprint champion who runs THROUGH THE TAPE and not showboat in the last 5-10 meters of the race. Unlike other female sprinters I don’t have to, and won’t, mention their names. Abby Steiner is another female sprinter who doesn’t showboat before the finish line of the race. It’s just refreshing to watch an athlete do what they have been taught from the first day of track practice. RUN THROUGH THE TAPE! Roger in Pierre South Dakota
Man..with a start like that. Those Jamaican women are gonna reClaim the world record in the 4×1.. They only have a 2 year window to do it ... Tops because SAFP is gonna start declining
Just think if one of the over 400 men ranked at 4117 running the 60m in 6.80 decided he felt a little feminine and decided to run the 60m as a transgender well just think how proud we could be of him, and how eager the other women would welcome him onto the center podium and into their locker room. Just sayin'.
@@GIBBO4182 Lebron’s legacy is at stake here. It’s very important that all the greatest philosophers urgently answer because his legacy is definitely being affected.
Natural speed, hard work in the gym, and going all-out on the tracks. That's the recipe for greatness once the results are record-breaking wins meet after meet. Great analysis. I expect the Jamaican ladies to push these times into the 10.60s and lower. And Julien Alfred will be there with them. She will be on the podium. For the PRO athletes to beat Julien they will have to run 10.50s or lower. And that's no guarantee. Julien Alfred will win many gold medals.
@@osuk1 Certainly. She is already posting times that only 5 or 6 pros currently are posting, occasionally. Faster competition will push her into the 10.60s. Maybe lower. The elite are getting older too.
@@sweetspotdrummer She has improved remarkably in her fifth year of college eligibility as she had only one prior championship victory at the NCAA level last year as a senior going all the way back to 2019. For example, back in 2022 she fared much worse until her sudden vast improvement: NCAA Division I Indoor Track & Field Championships Mar 11-12, 2022 60 7.15 5th (F) 60 7.04 1st (P) 200 23.54 8th (F) 200 23.22 6th (P) Prior to 2022 going back to 2019 she didn't even make it to the NCAA championships.
Yep , she has potential to knock off all d media darlings if she stays healthy. Track n field has d most amazing harvest of athletes I’ve ever seen this season. Must watch performance
I'm really looking forward to see her run against Sha'Carri Richardson. I believe Sha'Carri has higher top end speed, but Alfred clearly have the better start.
That Texas team that broke 4x100 m record had Alfred who grew up in Jamaica and also another Jamaican is on that same team who she went to high school within Jamaica, not only that, BUT all the Top NCAA athletes ALSO this year are. Jamaicans, WTH even athlete of the year male, females, Jamaican or went to high school in Jamaica. Alot of college go to Jamaica to scout young athletes in high school give them scholarship, Texas is highly known for scouting Jamaican athlete.
You write with authority but you just made all of that up - she is from my island St Lucia, she is not from Jamaica she went to school in Jamaica for just 3 years, that’s it. She grew up in St Lucia.
Alfred can definitely break the world record in the 60m, if not in Budapest this year, by next year's Olympics or World Championships. The 200m she should reach the podium.
Just think if one of the over 400 men ranked at 4117 running the 60m in 6.80 decided he felt a little feminine and decided to run the 60m as a transgender well just think how proud we could be of him, and how eager the other women would welcome him onto the center podium and into their locker room. Just sayin'.
If she can stay in form and healthy, she will be the #1 favorite for 200m at World Championships. 100m is more crowded with talent, though she should still be one of the favorites. Team USA should be able to challenge the 4x100 record if they can manage decent exchanges.

Way to go Julian Alfred keep making St.Lucia proud 🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨
She can absolutely medal in worlds. Womens sprinting is at an all time high with several women running 10.7s and 21 seconds, but she fits right in.

She finished 5th at the WCs.
UPDATE - Alfred just defeated Sha'Carri Richardson in the Szekesfehervar continental tour meeting - 10.89 VS 10.97.
She's not from Texas, she is from St. Lucia 🇱🇨
And grew up in Jamaica with a Jamaican coach.
100% Caribbean, NOT American.
She has the start of Christian Coleman and finishing of Noah Lyles.

Think Alfred will definitely make the world championship finals in both the 100m & 200m this year (2023). Top 4 in each of these events.
Alfred is a phenomenon.
Such a shame that her outdoor championship records at 100 and 200 were illegal due to wind. It would have been one for the record books.
Did it occur to you that her times were because she didn't have to push against the wind so much?
Holy $#!€ she broke the 60m record 5 times this year. That’s goat status right there
THIS WOMAN IS GOING TO BE ONE OF THE GREATS
Ben Johnson was going to be also
