- Arizona hurdler Georganne Moline won the fourth heat of the 400-meter hurdles at the London Olympics with a personal best time of 54.31 on Sunday afternoon. That was a couple hundredths of a second better than her Olympic qualifying time and it puts Moline in the semi-finals round, which go down tomorrow afternoon. The Phoenix native, who is joined by coach Fred Harvey in London, is taking an easy approach to the competition, saying the hard part was making it to the games in the first place.
