Sha'Carri Richardson, a Texas native, has qualified for the 2024 Paris Olympics after winning the 100-meter race at the U.S. Olympic Trials with a time of 10.71 seconds. Despite tripping on her shoelace and stumbling at the start of her first heat, Richardson secured her place on the U.S. Olympic team. Normally hyped after victories, she was visibly emotional, her eyes filled more with wonder than swagger. Richardson's training mates, Twanisha Terry and Melissa Jefferson, will join her at the Olympics.
