track star

Former U.S. track star and Austin resident Marion Jones has been moved from a federal prison in Fort Worth and will serve the remainder of her sentence in San Antonio.

A former Texas Longhorn track star from Marble Falls is going to Beijing for the Olympics. Leonel Manzano qualified in the men's 15-hundred meters at the U.S.

Olympic trials.

Bubba Thornton knows the Texas Relays. A track star at TCU, he competed in his first one back in 1967 and has been coming back ever since.

Texas' men's track coach isn't quite sure if he missed some relays in between that first meet back in '67 and this year's 81st Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays, but more than 40 years later, he still gets excited in early April when the focus of the track and field world is on Austin.
