USA Team adds two silver medals on final day of Universiade

The final day of track & field competition at the 29th Summer Universiade saw the running of the relay races.

The men’s 4x100m and 4x400m relay teams fulfilled their goal of winning a medal for themselves and their country as they ended the day with silver, but the day did not start well for USA Team.

The men’s 4x100m relay team composed of senior Cameron Burrell, sophomores John Lewis III and Jacarias Martin and 2016 graduate LeShon Collins all probably had hopes of bringing home a gold medal. After running the fastest qualifying time, 39.15s, USA Team was in a great situation to win.
