Sprinting all down to power and how you can pump those legs with the fastest velocity towards the finish line. For this you need to work on your strength on your legs. I've been Sprinting 100-200m races for a while now at University and 1-2nd places are always my sitting ;)

Pace yourself. Time each and every running and average it out. Do a total of 15 sprints a day.

As for strength. Heavy squats at the weight room will pay off amazingly on the track = should be done 3 days a week. Keep track of all sprints and weight on the Squat.How can i become a faster sprinter?
Don't forget Deadlifts, Overhead Squats,Power Cleans %26amp; Snatches. Flexibility is very important too.

Keep your hands loose. Thumb should hit chest, thumbs should go behind your hip. Pump your arms as fast as you can, also. Keep your toes pointed forwards and your foot parallel to the ground.
Pace yourself , time yourself
