After slowing the playback speed to .25 and rewatching the critical moments six times, I need to revise my earlier observation to report that the Washington runner actually did contact the baton and knocked it out of the Providence runner's hand but will have to leave it up to the judges as to how that stacks up against the Providence runner's swinging wide to block her. Would they be off-setting penalties? People will probably argue this one for years.

Every coach should definitely show the final 20 seconds to ALL their relay members (no matter what the distance) as a learning experience. #1. Washington on the corner tried to pass the Providence runner...both runners were equally strong at that point. Be patient, follow on the corner if you have no clear advantage to overtake the runner ahead of you.. By swinging out on the corner you force yourself to run harder, thus tiring you more. And if you do get to the shoulder of an equally strong runner, if you try to move in without a full stride on the inside runner and contact is made...you are the one DQ'd. Apparently, the corner judge ruled the contact to be insignificant thus creating no advantage/disadvantage...and no Washington DQ resulted. #2. Inside runner, carry the baton in your left hand...outside runner carry baton in right hand. #3. In a close race, when coming off a corner as the inside runner, do not drift "out" in an attempt to block your opponent. Even if no contact is created, this could be ruled as impeding your opponent's progress and cause you to be DQ'd. I do not think any judge ruled DQ for Providence impeding Washington's progress. #4. If Washington used a proper "sling-shot" pass when passing while coming off the corner technique, I think it would have been race over (Washington winning) #5. Because no proper sling-shot pass technique was used, the Washington runner lost all momentum and Providence actually beat Washington to the line. #6. Yes, there was Washington hand contact with the Providence baton (that's why Providence dropped the baton), but the ruling was that the contact was "accidental and NOT deliberately caused" by Washington. I saw no "overt action" by Washington to cause contact with the Providence baton. The Washington runner's arm swing action was unchanged throughout the final 50 meters. Therefore, that's just relay racing...PROTECT THE BATON AT ALL COSTS. You cannot win a race if you do not have the baton as you cross the finish line. So, if you drop the baton, go back and get it, and hope the judges rule in your team's favor concerning how did the baton get on the ground. In my final assessment...the final results were correct and should stand up under any protest.

What an incredible race. I’m a Washington fan but wish the drop never happened. That’s heartbreaking for the Providence runners.

Looks like the Washington runner knocked it out of the Providence runner's hand.

When you're in lane one, stay in lane one. It's the shortest distance. If you move to lane two down the stretch from lane one, you may be disqualified for obstruction.

When you run the inside lane, you carry the baton on the inside so this can never happen.

There was obvious contact noticeable at full speed that knocked out the baton. Even the commentators noticed the contact during the race.

In slow motion, it appears the baton hit the Washington runner's hand or wrist, however, even though each runner was interfering in the lanes at different times, it was the Providence runner moving further into the Washington's runner's lane that caused the contact with the baton. Washington should be the victors IMO.

The real problem with the race was the third leg runner for Providence. She was terrible and gave up a huge lead and gave the race to Washington. If you don't have a firm grip on the baton you gotta run with the baton in your left hand if there is a runner near you on the outside. With that slight unintentional contact the Providence runner should have never dropped the baton. The providence runer did drift into the Washington's runner lane, which could have been an infraction.

She could have run back and got the baton. She may have taken 3rd or 4th in the end. You can retrieve the baton as it is their own leg of the race. So long as you don't interfere with another runner there is no lane violation in this type of race.

WOW!!!! Did the Providence runner drop the baton, or did the Washington runner inadvertently knock it out of her hand? There was clear contact between the runners and the Providence runner did drift out, forcing Washington wider on the top of the stretch. I've never seen this happen before. Was there an official inquiry to determine what happened and who actually won?

IF the Washington runner had instead dropped her baton - this would have been a chaotic finish - since it was the Providence runner who caused the contact. Thankfully, the runner who was the cause of the contact, is the runner who ended up dropping her baton. Easier for the judges and probably everyone just feels sorry for her.

10:08 (7:55 of the race) from half way around the final turn. At .25 playback speed, the video quality is GREAT - wotta great race, regardless of controversy . . .

@10:23 contact was made to the baton by the Washington runner which in turn knocked the baton from the Providence' runners hand.
