Alongside her in Kingston was a group so formidable that many have gone on to stardom. Croatian high-jump diva Blanka Vlasic, United States (US) sprinter Lauryn Williams, Ethiopian distance darlings Meseret Defar and Tirunesh Dibaba, 1-2 in the 5000; intermediate hurdlers Louis Van Zyl, Lashinda Demus, Zuzana Hejnova and Bershawn 'Batman' Jackson were here too. Just under the radar were Sanya Richards-Ross and Allyson Felix.
