Burns and Cooper Close Men's Track & Field Season at NCAA West First Round

BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION – The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley's (UTRGV) men's outdoor track & field team wrapped up its season Friday at the NCAA West First Round hosted by Texas A&M at E.B. Cushing Stadium. 
 
Junior Aaron Cooper finished 30th after a good series of jumps that saw him improve with each attempt. Cooper cleared 48, 49 and 50 feet, capping his series with his best jump of the day at 15.37 meters, which is the fourth-best mark in program history. He matched his finish from last year's NCAA West regional. 
 
Junior Corin Burns took 24th in the men's 200-meter dash quarterfinals in 20.86, the No. 4 time in program history. Burns ran four of the five fastest 200 races in program history in his first year competing at UTRGV.
