DENVER -- Sprinter Michelle Collins was suspended for eight years for a doping violation linked to the BALCO scandal and will forfeit results that include 2003 indoor world and U.S. titles in the 200 meters.
The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency said Friday a three-member panel of the American Arbitration Association had concluded Collins, 33, used various performance-enhancing substances that allegedly were provided by the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative.
Though Collins never tested positive for banned substances, the appeals panel concluded she used the drugs for several years.
