CHRIS’S BIO
Chris has always
had athleticism in his blood. He comes from a very athletics
family – his brother, Tony, was an All-American in the 400m and
Arizona State, and his brother, Bernard, is a wide receiver for
the Minnesota Vikings. Chris, however, was a late bloomer and
walked onto the Fresno State team as a sprinter. He is a very
dedicated and determined to improve, and ended up earning a
scholarship.
Since finishing
his collegiate career, Chris has continued to improve each
year. He ran indoors this year (2009) for the first time since
2002, and ran a huge indoor PB (20.67). Judging by the indoor
season, Chris is set up to have the best outdoor season of his
career to this point!
