Texas Post-Meet Notes | Live Results

EUGENE, Ore. – The final day of the USATF Olympic Trials was arguably the best of the two weeks' worth of action for the Texas Longhorns. A total of six current and former Longhorns were in action and two of them put together silver-medal performances to qualify for Team USA and the Olympic Games this summer.

Ashley Spencer was the first Texas Longhorn to punch her ticket to Rio on Sunday running in the 400 meter hurdles. She crossed the finish line in 54.02 seconds for a new personal best and second place.
