PREVIEW TIGERS LADY TIGERS COACHES REVIEW HISTORY RECORDS THIS IS LSU Men’s Season Preview 2 With a solid base of returning All-Americans and a talented 0 recruiting class the Tigers will not have to look far to find those next 0 contributors that could again place LSU among the track and 3 field's elite come June. L Sprints/Relays S LSU returns a stable of sprinters in 2003 as three of the four U members from both the national champion 4x100-meter relay T team and the All-America 4x400 relay team return to the Tiger R squad. A Leading the way is the anchor to last year's title winning 4x100 C team, sophomore Bennie Brazell. Arguably one of the best fresh- K man to ever run in the United States,Brazell not only anchored the 4x100, but also ran the third leg on LSU's 4x400-meter relay team & a year ago and should electrify the crowds with his sizzling speed F again this season. I All-Americans Robert Parham and Pete Coley each return for E their junior seasons, and paired with Brazell,will make both LSU's L 4x100 and 4x400-meter relay teams a forced to be reckoned with at D the NCAA Championships. Individually, each should contend for national dominance in the sprint events, as Coley is coming off a t h i rd-place finish in the open quarter at the NCA A Championships, while Parham turned heads in the 200 meters at that same meet. Filling in the missing link in the Tigers' relay squads will like- ly be a toss up between junior Marlon Greensword, junior college transfer Anthony Ewers and freshman Kelly Willie.
