BRATTONContinued from PXX
Bratton's track career is-n't over. An All-CS8 widereceiver, he has chosen notto play football in college.He will instead compete forLincoln College's trackteam with hopes of latertransferring to a NCAADivision I school.
"I really didn't see myselfplaying football in college,"B r a t t o nsaid.
Expansion
At the college level, heexpects to expand hisrepertoire. Bratton ran the200 occasionally in highschool. He recalls runningit twice during his seniorseason.
"I'll probably run it in thecollege so I can get betterat the 100," he said. "Iwanted to give the 200 atry this year to see what myfastest time would be andsee if I could get a decenttime, and 22.3 secondswas pretty good."
Bratton's personalrecord in the 100 is
10.57. The winningtime set the meet
record at theM a r kTwain/BeckyThatcher Relaysin April.
