Jarrett, the New York state 100 and 200 champion in 1990 and 1991, first beat the injured Hooker in the trial heats in 6.77 seconds to 6.89, then came back 30 minutes later and won the final in 6.73.

Hooker, competing with his left foot heavily taped because of shin splints, finished second in 6.77.

Later, Jarrett won the 200 in a sparkling 21.21, faster than his outdoor best by .01 seconds. Andrew Pierce of Ohio State was second; Hooker finished fourth in 21.82. Jarrett was the 98 Metropolitan  Conference Indoor Track Champion at 200 Meters (22.23).
