Statement
from USATF President Stephanie Hightower and CEO Doug Logan on the
Court of Arbitration for Sport's decision that the 2000 U.S. Olympic
women's 4x100m and 4x400m relay teams not be disqualified:

Although
USATF was not a party to this case, we are sympathetic to any clean
athlete who was robbed of something because of Marion Jones' cheating:
competitors, teammates, fans and anyone who strives for fair
competition. The sport, its rules and how we deal with the consequences
of doping have evolved rapidly and forcefully since 2000, and this type
of situation will never again happen. We can all now look forward and
continue our efforts to ensure a clean sport.
