SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Former American University track athlete and current AU assistant coach Sean O’Brien (Tewksbury, Mass./Winnisquam Regional) on Friday was in contention for a spot in the 1500m finals at the U.S. Olympic Trials, but fell off the pace with about 100 meters to go and failed to move on.
