De Grasse has enjoyed success so far this season in preparation for the Rio Olympics. De Grasse ran a wind-aided 9.99 seconds to win the 100 at the Florida Relays in his season opener and also won the 60 in his professional debut.

Webb and De Grasse both train with the ALTIS group. De Grasse made the training switch in December, moving to Phoenix to work with Stuart McMillan.

Cunningham wins high jump

Former NFL quarterback Randall Cunningham keeps raising the bar — and daughter Vashti keeps clearing it.

Vashti Cunningham won the women's high jump, clearing 6 foot, 4 inches.

"I hadn't been in a real competition since before indoors so I was happy to be outside adjusting to the heat again," Cunningham said. "My goal was 6-6 and then higher.

"But I skipped 6-5 to go to 6-6 because I was feeling better but when I got there I had to reach more, and I couldn't do it. It would have taken more speed, but I wasn't running fast today."

The 18-year-old Vashti burst onto the world stage by winning the USA Indoor championships last month in Portland, Oregon, with a jump of 6-6 1/4, the world's best this year. She then became the youngest ever to win a gold medal at the IAAF World Indoor at 6-5.

Vashti expects to make her professional debut next month at the Prefontaine Classic in Eugene, Oregon, and compete for a berth on the U.S. Olympic team in July.

In other events Saturday, Ashton Easton, the Olympic champion and world record holder in the decathlon, won the men's long jump at 26-6 1/2, but was beaten badly in the 110-metre hurdles.

For the Cunninghams, the high jump has become a family affair, with brother Randall II earning All-America status in the event as a freshman at the University of Southern California.

"We talk high jump all the time," Randall Sr. said "They get tired of it. Here goes dad, he won't stop talking about high jump. I say, `No, because I want you to be the best.' "

Randall II finished fourth in the men's high jump Saturday.

"It's been great to see her become a high school state champion to now an Indoor world champion," Randall II said. "It's been a pleasure for me to see her grow."
