University of New Mexico sprinter Jevon O’Bryant felt the love and support from teammates, who cheered him on during his first 800-meter run experience at the New Mexico Spring Invitational on Thursday.
With athletes from New Mexico State, New Mexico Highlands and NCAA Division II schools Fort Lewis and Adams State also competing, the meet was more of a low-key competition – especially compared to next week when the Lobos will compete in the Mt. San Antonio College Relays (Walnut, California) and the Bryan Clay Invitational (Azusa, California).
But O’Bryant still wanted to do the best he could.
