GEORGIOUPOLIS, Greece - Marion Jones is firmly on the 400-meter relay team and, if all goes as planned, she will run all three rounds of the event at the Athens Olympics, the U.S. women's coach said Thursday.

Coach Sue Humphrey said Jones and three other sprinters had separated themselves from the others.

The women's relay squad would be, in order, Angela Williams, Jones, Lauryn Williams and LaTasha Colander.

It's the same team that ran 41.37 seconds in Munich on Sunday.

"That's three-tenths of a second off the world record," Humphrey said before she and a group of athletes left for Athens Thursday evening to participate in tonight's Opening Ceremony.

Jones has qualified for only the long jump after winning an unprecedented five medals in Sydney four years ago.

Police said the pair were on a motorcycle when the accident occurred - on the day of the Olympics Opening Ceremony - and that they had not been seriously hurt.

OPENING NIGHT: Tonight's Opening Ceremonies will honor Greece's ancient values and culture, which led to the creation of the ancient games. The cauldron will be lit, capping the Olympic flame's 46,800-mile global journey through 26 nations.
