LONDON - Team USA advanced two men to the Olympic Steeplechase final for the first time in 16 years during a smooth first session of track & field Friday morning at the 2012 Olympic Games. In total, 12 Americans advanced to the next round of competition.

In the men’s 400 hurdles, Michael Tinsley, Kerron Clement and Angelo Taylor breezed through to the next round. Tinsley (Round Rock, Texas) won his heat in 49.13, Clement (Gainesville, Fla.) was second in heat 4 with a season’s best 48.48, while Taylor (Atlanta, Ga.) crossed the line in 49.29 to win heat 5.

Michael Tinsley, 400m Hurdles: “With the track being so fast it made it real easy to come out here and get into your stride pattern and it’s an extremely fast track. The crowd made it easy, and I just wanted to get out here and establish my rhythm early and come home as controlled as possible.”
