Nice front page article in today’s Arkansas Democrat Gazette Sports section. A couple of 400M NCAA titles and 400M Hurdles bronze medal from Atlanta Olympics makes him a celebrity in Razorback Track & Field. .

Thanks for the link. Sad to see this. Thankful for this great Hog and prayers for his family.

Aloha,
We lost a great one. Way too early in life.
Truly amazing how he transitioned from 400M to 400M hurdles and win the Olympic bronze…in less than 10 events. Wow.
I really admire how he gave back to the State’s youth. The most invaluable item we can give someone is our time. Not $$$ but time.
UA…Campus of Champions

In case no one noticed, the guy posting this on Twitter is Ato Bolden. Ato is originally from Trinidad, one of the all time sprinters, with four Olympic medals in 100M and 200M and now is the lead analyst for NBC coverage of Track & Field for Olympics, World Championships and all else. Shows respect for Calvin in the world track & field community.

I have noticed tweets by a whole lot of world class athletes.

Noticed that. Ato is a class act and definitely respects UA T&F. I was clicking around YouTube the other day, watched some stuff from last year’s Worlds in Eugene involving Britton Wilson and he was mentioning how other UA athletes had been doing very well.
