US Olympic Track Trials

Frisco, Texas USA, April 28, 2000

1996 Olympic silver medal winner Marty Nothstein (Trexlertown, Pa.) showed his form Friday with a victory in the men's match sprint on the fourth day of the U.S. Olympic Team Trials for Track Cycling at The Superdrome in Frisco (Texas). No athletes earned slots on the U.S. Olympic Cycling Team. The entire U.S. Olympic Track Cycling Team will be announced in early July.

Nothstein, who is a past world champion in the event, defeated Jeff Solt (Los Altos Hills, Calif.) in two consecutive races to win the event.

"Without a doubt a sent a message today (won two straight in both the semis over Jeff Labauve (Frisco, Texas) and in the finals over Jeff Solt). I've been training really hard and this reward for all that hard training. I trained right up to this competition and I feel a lot better than I thought I would," said Nothstein, who set a Pan American Games record with three gold medals in 1999.

"I was real pleased with the way I rode. I rode with some good power, but by all means I've got a lot of work still ahead of me. I'm right where I want to be, but I'm not in Olympic Gold medal shape. There's no way I could go into the Olympics and win a gold medal right now. "

In the women's match sprint, reigning national champion Tanya Lindenmuth (Trexlertown, Pa.) claimed the championship by beating 1998 national champion Jennie Reed (Kirkland, Wash.) in two successive races.

"I am taking the season step-by-step, and tonight was the first of many competitive races I will face to try to make the Olympic Team. I have learned a lot from Jennie over the past few years during training, and I admire her as an athlete."

1992 Olympian Jame Carney (Flagstaff, Ariz.) won a pair of events Friday with victories in the men's 25-kilometer points race and the miss & out race. Carney captured the event with 25 points, followed by Colby Pearce (Boulder, Colo.) and Erin Hartwell (Indianapolis) with 20 and 17 points, respectively. The points race is on the Olympic competition schedule, and Carney finished ninth at the 1999 World Track Cycling Championships in Berlin, Germany.

"The team (Shaklee) worked well for me today, and it was our goal to finish 1-2-3 in the race. It was nice to win, and have Colby finish second. I was lucky to be so versatile today and be able to utilize by sprinting abilities at the proper times.

The points race is a mass-start race in which cyclists score points every 10 laps during a sprint lap. The winner of the sprint lap earns five points, while the next three cyclists capture three, two and one points, respectively.

Lucy Tyler (Miami, Fla.) was the winner of the women's 20-kilometer points race. She captured the first four sprints and never looked back en route to scoring 38 points. Colombia's Maria Calle finished in second place with 17 points. Tyler earned a bronze medal at the 1996 Olympic Games in the points race.

Canadian Olympic medallist Tanya Dubncioff (Winnipeg, Man., Canada) set a track record with a time of 14.690 in the flying lap invitational competition. She eclipsed the previous mark of 14.750 set by Reed last September.

The fifth and final day of competition begins at 10:30 a.m. Saturday. Among the events on the schedule are the men's Keirin, women's 500-meter time trial, men's 20-kilometer Madison and men's invitational flying lap record attempt. The evening session kicks off at 5 p.m.
