Tuhia he haere tonu mo tenei irava - I wikitoria a Kasova i tana taitara tuatoru me te whakamutunga o tana taitara a motu i te Bulgarian Indoor Championships i te timatanga o te tau 2002. I puta tana angitu i te 2002 European Cup B Final
, i wikitoria ai ia i te 100 m hurdles i roto i te wa hou mo te 12.75 hēkona. I tenei wa ko ia te tekau o te ao mo taua tau, me te tuatoru i waenga i nga Pakeha. Ko Desislava Mutafchieva te toa i nga Whakataetae Bulgarian i taua tau, engari i te 2002 European Athletics Championships i haere mai a Kasova me te mētara parahi. I hinga ano ia i raro i te tekau ma toru hēkona, a ko Glory Alozie o Spain-Nigeria me Olena Krasovska o Ukraine anake i patu.
