In this video….ABC’s Jim McKay presents a profile of athletes who have won the 1st ever medal in Olympics history for their country…..like Nawal El Moutawakel of Morocco….when she won the women’s 400 m hurdles at the ’84 Olympics…..and Gabriel Tiacoh in the men’s 400 m dash in track and field….who won silver for the Ivory Coast…..their first medal in Olympics History.
This video ends up with a prelude to the track men’s 400 m dash finals…..where JAM Bert Cameron had to scratch before the finals….cuz he pulled a hamstring in the semifinals.
