USATF statement on CAS decision regarding the 2000 Olympic women's relays<\/p>
\r\n<\/strong><\/em><\/font><\/font><\/div>

Statement
\r\nfrom USATF President Stephanie Hightower and CEO Doug Logan on the
\r\nCourt of Arbitration for Sport's decision that the 2000 U.S. Olympic
\r\nwomen's 4x100m and 4x400m relay teams not be disqualified:<\/em><\/p>
\r\n

Although
\r\nUSATF was not a party to this case, we are sympathetic to any clean
\r\nathlete who was robbed of something because of Marion Jones' cheating:
\r\ncompetitors, teammates, fans and anyone who strives for fair
\r\ncompetition. The sport, its rules and how we deal with the consequences
\r\nof doping have evolved rapidly and forcefully since 2000, and this type
\r\nof situation will never again happen. We can all now look forward and
\r\ncontinue our efforts to ensure a clean sport.<\/p>
\r\n
