TXST Men’s Mile Relay Team breaks 37 year old record

Avery Veiseh couldn’t believe it as his mile relay team’s time flashed across the scoreboard

Veiseh, along with Taahir Kelly, Brian West and Dominick Yancy, had spent more than a year chasing the Texas State school record for the mile relay that stood at 3:10:97 and remained unchallenged since 1986.

“I’m still a little shocked since I wasn’t expecting to beat it,” Veiseh said. “We have been practicing on how to compete but hard work does pay off.”
