Wall of Fame
Louisiana State ‘94
A six-time watch winner, Taplin earned two victories each in the 100-meter dash and the 4x100 and 4x200-meter relays. In the latter event she ran on a pair of record setting teams, the second of which—in 1994—was an American record 1:32.55 which she anchored. She also set a meet record in the 100-meters that year and was the Carnival’s outstanding female collegian.
