On TV:NBC, 4:30-6:00 pm

With just days to go until the Prefontaine Classic on July 3rd, multiple Olympic or World Championships gold medalists have committed to the meet, its first as a member of the prestigious new IAAF Diamond League series.

“The fields are by far the strongest in the meet’s 35-year history,” says meet director Tom Jordan. “Unless fans have been fortunate enough to attend an Olympic Games, they will see more gold medalists at this year’s Pre Classic than at any other meet ever held in the United States .”

The 2010 NIKE Prefontaine Classic will be shown live on NBC from 4:30 to 6:00 p.m. ET, and to an international television audience numbering in the millions.  A 14th consecutive sell-out is anticipated, as ticket sales are well ahead of any previous year.
