Houston will be sending 10 individuals and two relay teams to compete in the NCAA Outdoor Championships in Austin June 5-8.
The Cougars, fresh off an AAC team title and a dominant NCAA West Preliminaries outing, look to repeat its indoors success after UH finished second at the NCAA Championships in March.
“This is probably one of the best groups I’ve ever been in,” said senior jumper Trumaine Jefferson ahead of his second-straight championship appearance. “This is very special for us.”
Jefferson, who narrowly missed out on a win at indoors by about a centimeter, will compete in the long jump with a seed mark of 7.
