Eric Gregory / Sr / Gallaudet University / Metairie, La. / East Jefferson HS

Gallaudet University All-American sprinter Eric Gregory continues to erase his own indoor track and field school records. Gregory won the 400-meter dash with a time of 48.08 seconds last Sunday at the Richard Drake Invitational hosted by Virginia Wesleyan University in the Virginia Beach Sports Center. Gregory's previous school record time in the 400-meter dash was 48.76 that he set last year Feb. 24, 2023 at the Fasttrack Last Chance Invitational.

Gregory along with senior Gareth Ashton (Austin, Texas), junior Walter Douglas (Sanford, Fla.) and Trey Johnson (Kyle, Texas) broke their own school record in the 4x400 meter relay by nearly six seconds with a time of 3:21.99 as they erased the 3.27.58 mark that happened back on Dec. 8, 2023 at the Bow Tie Invitational.
Gregory placed third overall in the 60-meter dash with a time of 7.00 seconds.  This is the 9th Athlete of the Week honor for Gregory who is a two-time NCAA Division III National Champion (400m; 2022 & 2023; outdoors) as well as a four-time All-American.
