...Baylor University in Waco, Texas. "If you've got speed, it really shouldn't matter." Unless a positive drug test arises, the track team not only has its speed, but also its credibility. Still, even the athletes understand the public trust is tenuous. "The faster I run," says Lauryn Williams, 20, who won two medals, a 100-m silver and 4X100 relay gold, at these Olympics, "the less people will believe I am clean." As the first entrant in the post-BALCO era, U.S. track and field shot off the starting blocks in Athens. Let's hope this...
