BOULDER — Colorado senior Gabby Scott can look back now at her first-ever hurdles race and smile.
At the time, however, she couldn't manage much more than a grimace.
Scott, who now holds the CU 400-hurdles record (56.82) as well as the school's open 400 marks (indoor and outdoor), made her hurdles debut as a college freshman at the Texas Relays.
It was, she says with a laugh, a less-than-resounding success.
"For starters, the Texas Relays are intimidating as is, never mind that it's my first race," Scott said this week.
