Local athletes set for NCAA track and field championships

Today, I’m all set to try something different.

Your correspondent here at The JB Replay is determined to take a shot at covering athletes from the San Antonio area competing in the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships.

The meet starts today and runs through Saturday at Hayward Field at the University of Oregon.

Sam Worley and Alex Rogers at the University of Texas are two of the athletes on my list.

The two former stars from New Braunfels Canyon High School are set to compete in the 1,500 meters.

Robert Ford, a senior at Southern Cal from Johnson High School, is running in the 800 meters.

Devin Clark, a University of Arkansas sophomore from Smithson Valley, and Kiana Horton, a Baylor junior from Judson, are also in the meet.

Clark is qualified in the 3,000-meter steeplechase. Horton is set to run both the 400 meters and the 4×400 relay.
