EUGENE, Ore. (WATE/UT Sports) -- For the first time since 1972, a Lady Vol will run in the 100 meters at the Olympics.

Tianna Madison earned a trip by taking second in the women's 100-meter dash Saturday at the U.S. Olympic Trials at Hayward Field. It will be her first Olympic games.

Madison won an IAAF World Championship in the long jump as a sophomore at UT in 2005 before turning pro.
