Analysis: Although the USA won as many total medals in Daegu, Korea(25) as they did in Moscow the result was too many silver medals. The USA had just 6 gold in Moscow compared to 12 gold in Daegu. The USA won 14 silver and 5 bronze. Russia had 7 gold to top the USA 7-6. Russia had 17 medals overall.
The USA seems to be losing to Jamaica more and more as Jamaica's track program gets even stronger.
The USA lost to Jamaica in both 4 by 100M relays, both 100M and both 200M races. The USA did beat Jamaica in the 4 by 400M relay. It was a mixed bag for the USA, lots of medals won, not enough gold.
