Ok, let’s not get bent out of shape. The English language has its nuisances like anything. She was second and lowered her PB, She is a winner by 1000000 miles. Let’s not beat up the writer either, we are partisan, due to our love of Princess BW. She is our winner and we can’t wait to see her in the full season. She is in great hands with Oto Sir Bolton. Back to training now…..March before we see her again. all measured running for Trials…
Well done Brianna. We are very excited about your commitment to and improvement on the track. Your are deserving of every success.
A PB and second place counts as losing? Ok
Congratulations Briana!
Hold your head up you are just building for better things to come
Still a winner in my eyes u lowered ur PB that only means improvement!!! ?
In our eyes and for your age you are our winner. You did not loose. You came second. Congratulations Brianna
Still proud of you Briana. You are young and your best is yet to come!
Congrats Briana you are our Jamaican princess win loose or draw we love you keep up your great work .. Run Briana Run..❤
@Brent Robinson that’s why you should read more than a measly headline
@Brent when Bolt lost, we should say he came third and not that he lost the race? You can’t make this shit up. Incredible! Control yuh emotions.
@Brent Robinson what absolute trash is this? LOL
@Julia Haskins-Anderson It is also true that she came 2nd, but the headline didn’t say that. There are thousands of true things that can be said about any given person; using true negative words instead of true positive words is usually a bad choice, unless the intent is to degrade the person or what they did.
@Brent Robinson it is the correct word to use, you either win or lose! Age has nothing to do with track only your time. 2nd place isn’t a bad place to be in.
@ – Dawkins Brent Robinson totally agree
@Brent Robinson Excellent point
It’s wrong to use the word “loses” to describe this accomplishment. She’s a 17 year old high school girl who placed 2nd to a college sprinter. While “lose” might be technically correct for 2nd place, it’s not a good word choice in this context.
@Kyle Davis exactly ppl missing the big picture lol
Holy crap Michael Harvey. Girls running 7.17 and it’s not even indoor championship season yet!
Work in progress
If she lowered her pb she’s got excellent top end speed , she’s in top form for the 100m
So What she gone burn in the 100
