Three of our football team members, Devin Glenn, Corey Dauphine, and Jaetavian Toles, have been contributing as sprinters this spring on the Tulane track team. The three join a fourth sprinter to form Tulane’s 4 x 100m relay team and also compete in the 100m and 200m. This weekend, Dauphine finished 9th in the preliminaries of the AAC Outdoor championship 100m dash. With a time of 10.55, he barely missed qualifying for the finals. Glenn ran a 10.65 for 15th place, and Toles finished with the 20th fastest time at 11.05. In the 200m, Glenn finished 12th (21.37) and Dauphine finished 14th (21.53). Toles apparently did not compete in the 200. Regardless, those are good times.
On the downside, Houston had five sprinters qualify for the final and four more (two different guys) qualify for the finals in the 200m. So they essentially had 7 guys faster than our fastest runners. On the upside, none of Houston’s sprinters are listed on the football roster.
We should be able to compete for a medal in the 4 x 100 today but we’ll see.
Roll Wave!!!
