Due to a lack of time and demand, we will not be posting any additional photos from the 2002 NCAA Indoor Championships.

Nilsson and Shalane Flanagan lead, Donohue, Katie Yemm, Malindi Elmore and Roisin McGettigan follow.
L-R: Sara Gorton, Nilsson, Flanagan and McGettigan.
Gorton, who broke Mary Decker Slaney's CU indoor mile record this season, spent much of the race just behind the leaders.
During the previous night's DMR, Nilsson outkicked Flanagan on the 1,600m leg, giving UCLA the victory over UNC. It appeared that this race would be a rematch.
Katie Yemm of Colorado State finished 7th in 4:44.14.
Flanagan continues to lead, Nilsson and Gorton follow on her outside.
Erin Donohue and Heather Sagan run together.
With two laps to go, Nilsson holds a slight lead with Flanagan, Elmore, Gorton and Sagan in striking distance.
With one lap to go, it's Nilsson, Flanagan, Elmore, Sagan and Gorton.
Nilsson and Flanagan battled on the last lap, but Sagan hung in there and moved into the lead in the home stretch.
This is the last photo we got of Sagan before one of the officials stepped into the middle of the track. Sagan won in 4:38.52, Nilsson was second in 4:38.88 and Flanagan fourth (4:39.11).
