The expected main American contender for the Olympic title, Jim Golliday, was injured and did not qualify. In Helsinki, one of the leading American sprinters, Art Bragg, was injured prior to the Games, leaving two Americans, Dean Smith and Remigino to qualify for the final.       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Out of the blocks, John Treloar took a step ahead, but Remigino the eventual Olympic champion and several more quickly picked up his pace, with Jamaica’s Herb McKenley lagging well behind. By the 80 m mark, Remigino held a big lead: however, in his excitement at sight of the advancing tape, he pitched forward in a virtual lean. He therefore decelerated in the lean, and, as McKenley came quickly, at the tape no one was certain who won. The final was “probably the closest mass finish in Olympic 100 metre history” with the first four runners all clocking in at 10.4 seconds hand-timed (with the fifth and sixth runners only 0.1 behind in 10.5), all six finalists within 0.12 seconds electric-timed (10.79 for first, 10.91 for sixth), and a photo finish necessary to separate the winners.[3] Across Europe that Summer, Remigino defeated McKenley several times more in the 100, while McKenley defeated the new “World’s Fastest Human” one time in the 200 m race. In Oslo, Norway, Remigino won in 10.2 s which would have equaled the 100-meters world-record, but an out of place wind-o-meter meant the time could not be ratified. His official best time was 10.4 s.[2]In 1953, Remigino won both ICAAAA sprint championships. In 1955 he placed second to Bobby Morrow in the 100 US Nationals.[citation needed]Following his running career, Remigino became a coach at the Hartford High School in Connecticut.[2]Remingino died on July 11, 2018, at the age of 87.[4]References[edit]1912: \u00a0David Jacobs, Henry Macintosh, Victor d’Arcy, Willie Applegarth\u00a0(GBR)1920: \u00a0Charley Paddock, Jackson Scholz, Loren Murchison, Morris Kirksey\u00a0(USA)1924: \u00a0Loren Murchison, Louis Clarke, Frank Hussey, Al LeConey\u00a0(USA)1928: \u00a0Frank Wykoff, James Quinn, Charley Borah, Henry Russell\u00a0(USA)1932: \u00a0Bob Kiesel, Emmett Toppino, Hector Dyer, Frank Wykoff\u00a0(USA)1936: \u00a0Jesse Owens, Ralph Metcalfe, Foy Draper, Frank Wykoff\u00a0(USA)1948: \u00a0Barney Ewell, Lorenzo Wright, Harrison Dillard, Mel Patton\u00a0(USA)1952: \u00a0Dean Smith, Harrison Dillard, Lindy Remigino, Andy Stanfield\u00a0(USA)1956: \u00a0Ira Murchison, Leamon King, Thane Baker, Bobby Morrow\u00a0(USA)1960: \u00a0Bernd Cullmann, Armin Hary, Walter Mahlendorf, Martin Lauer\u00a0(EUA)1964: \u00a0Paul Drayton, Gerry Ashworth, Richard Stebbins, Bob Hayes\u00a0(USA)1968: \u00a0Charles Greene, Mel Pender, Ronnie Ray Smith, Jim Hines\u00a0(USA)1972: \u00a0Larry Black, Robert Taylor, Gerald Tinker, Eddie Hart\u00a0(USA)1976: \u00a0Harvey Glance, Lam Jones, Millard Hampton, Steve Riddick\u00a0(USA)1980: \u00a0Vladimir Muravyov, Nikolay Sidorov, Aleksandr Aksinin, Andrey Prokofyev\u00a0(URS)1984: \u00a0Sam Graddy, Ron Brown, Calvin Smith, Carl Lewis\u00a0(USA)1988: \u00a0Viktor Bryzhin, Vladimir Krylov, Vladimir Muravyov, Vitaliy Savin\u00a0(URS)1992: \u00a0Michael Marsh, Leroy Burrell, Dennis Mitchell, Carl Lewis, James Jett\u00a0(USA)1996: \u00a0Robert Esmie, Glenroy Gilbert, Bruny Surin, Donovan Bailey, Carlton Chambers\u00a0(CAN)2000: \u00a0Jon Drummond, Bernard Williams, Brian Lewis, Maurice Greene, Tim Montgomery, Kenny Brokenburr\u00a0(USA)2004: \u00a0Jason Gardener, Darren Campbell, Marlon Devonish, Mark Lewis-Francis\u00a0(GBR)2008: \u00a0Keston Bledman, Marc Burns, Emmanuel Callender, Richard Thompson, Aaron Armstrong\u00a0(TTO)2012: \u00a0Nesta Carter, Michael Frater, Yohan Blake, Usain Bolt, Bailey-Cole\u00a0(JAM)2016: \u00a0Asafa Powell, Yohan Blake, Nickel Ashmeade, Usain Bolt, Jevaughn Minzie, Kemar Bailey-Cole\u00a0(JAM)2020: \u00a0Lorenzo Patta, Marcell Jacobs, Fausto Desalu, Filippo Tortu\u00a0(ITA)     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki40\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki40\/lindy-remigino-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Lindy Remigino – Wikipedia"}}]}]
