ISAAC MURPHY


HARKER HEIGHTS — Multi-events athlete Isaac Murphy, of Collins Elite Sprint (C.E.S.), the club synonymous with former prep names such as Tiffany Townsend (Baylor), Jacob Norman (Baylor) and Quincy Bowles (UT Austin), signed a letter of intent to compete for the UT Longhorns on Saturday, February 9.
Murphy, (above), pictured with father, Kenneth, left; mother, Naomi, second from left; and personal trainer and coach Bill Collins, right, competed in the 2007 Great Southwest Classic for Team Texas. A 10.6 100-meter sprinter and 46-foot-triple jumper, whose range spans everything from the short to long distances, the high and long jumps, shot put, discus and javelin, Murphy has become an accomplished jack of all tracks — and fields, while maintaining a 3.1 grade point average at Harker Heights High School.
