USA Track & Field - Willie Gault named USATF Athlete of the Week

At the May 7, 2016 Oxy Invite in Los Angeles, Gault ran:
11.30 100m (0.0 wind)
23.24 200m (1.0 wind - legal)

Gault broke Bill Collins' old M55 records of 11.44 and 23.36, respectively.

On the age-graded chart (which is a guage and not entirely precise), Gault's time's would be roughly equivalent to 9.84 and 20.06.

Go Willie! GBO.

One of my favorites. I was there with my Dad when he had the lone score against Pitt in 1980 with a 100 yard kickoff return for a td.

Watching Willie Gault play was one of the things which really turned me on to UT football. I was a student at the time and jogged Tom Black Track. When WG came down to run, he blew around the track with such ease and speed that he looked super human.

We were sitting in the newly enclosed North end zone section and I vividly remember watching him catch the ball in the end zone and take off.
