Olympics 2012: JSU's Michael Tinsley takes silver in men's 400m hurdles

LONDON  -  One of the toughest races on Monday at the Olympics Stadium in London has a surprise outcome in favor of the United States. USA was well represented when Michael Tinsley crossed the finish line second in the Men’s 400 meter hurdles surprising everyone. In what was a tough race, Felix Sanchez brought home the Dominican Republic gold, but that was almost expected when he crossed the finish line at 47.63.

It was Michael Tinsley’s strongest moment on the field and gave the audience a shocker as most didn’t think the United States athlete had a chance. However as Tinsley proved, never underestimate the underdog.
