When attending track and field meets, the sprinting events typically garner the most attention. At UH, the Cougars boast some of the fastest sprinters in the nation.
Coaches Leroy Burrell and Carl Lewis both had successes on the track for school and country, in individual events and on relay teams. Now, the two are preparing the team for the upcoming indoor season.
LeShon Collins, who graduated this past spring, was one of the premier sprinters for the Cougars during the indoor and outdoor seasons. With his departure, the following three sprinters will succeed the athlete who won the 2016 American Athletic Conference top outdoor honor.
