Laura O'Neill leads Melissa Gulli and Jamie Krzyminski in the 10,000 final.
Kathy Newberry finished 13th in the 5,000 earlier in the Trials.
Deena Kastor continues to dominate the race.
Alicia Craig, a two-time NCAA champion in this event, runs in fourth place.
Sylvia Mosqueda also competed in the Olympic Marathon Trials in early April.
Jamie Krzyminski finished third in the 10,000 at the previous month's NCAA Championships.
Sharon Dickie wound up 11th here in 33:26.48.
Katherine Newberry.
Kastor showed her dominance as she began to lap some of the country's top runners.
Kate O'Neill (yes, she and Laura are twins) and Alicia Craig run in third and fourth places.
Because Deena Kastor had already made it clear that she would not run this event in Athens...
...spots 2-4 here were the critical ones for Olympic qualifying purposes. However, only O'Neill...
...and Dryer had the qualifying time necessary to run in Athens. Because the pace wasn't fast enough here...
...whoever finished fourth would have to chase the "A" standard of 31:45.00 to make the team.
After slipping back in the race, Sylvia Mosqueda walked off the track and dropped out.
The field featured a handful of young runners who were gaining valuable Trials experience here.
Kastor continues to run her own race up front.
Kathy Newberry.
Kate O'Neill runs in second place and Elva Dryer in third.
Deena Kastor laps runners who would finish in the top 10.
