AIU Reassigns World U20 200m Gold to Torrie Lewis After Hodge Ban

A case resolution cut Adaejah Hodge’s two-year penalty for a GW501516 finding, prompting retroactive disqualifications from August 28 to November 22, 2024.

Overview

  • Official results have been updated, elevating Torrie Lewis to 200m champion with Shanoya Douglas to silver and Jessica Milat to bronze from the 2024 World U20s.
  • Athletics Integrity Unit documents show Hodge received a two-year sanction backdated to August 28, 2024, with seven months reduced for substantial assistance.
  • The violation was classified as non-intentional under a Case Resolution Agreement, avoiding a full hearing.
  • All of Hodge’s results from August 28 to November 22, 2024, were disqualified, stripping her World U20 200m gold and 100m silver from Lima.
  • Hodge became eligible to compete on January 28, 2026, and has since raced in the NCAA indoor season, winning the 200m and placing second in the 60m for Georgia.
