Ian Morris:
I carried TT Track on my back By Veersen Bhoolai (Aprl 2004) Ian Morris Ian Morris will go down as on of Trinidad and Tobago's greatest Track athletes. Don't let the fact that he never won an Olympic medal fool you. In a time after Hazley Crawford and before Ato Boldon and Darryl Browne, this quarter miler from Siparia, South Trinidad, was a constant source of pride and inspiration for TT athletes and fans. Morris missed out on an Olympic bronze medal at the 1992 Barcelona Games by just one-hundredth of a second. In the semi finals he broke his own national record running 44.21. To this day, it's the fifth fastest national record in the world. Only Michael Johnson, 43.18 (USA); Robert Hernandez, 44.14 (Cuba); Innocent Egbunige, 44.17 (Nigeria) and Samson Kitur, 44.18 (Kenya) are faster. continue reading here, vbhoolai.wixsite.com/hail-caribbeansport/ian-morris-trinidad-track
