The William & Mary men's track & field team added a talented transfer sprinter to the roster today, with UTSA graduate
Chris Rosales (Harlingen, Texas) joining the program to use his final outdoor season of eligibility in the spring of 2021. Rosales, who earned his Bachelors of Business Administration in accounting from the University of Texas San Antonio in May, is enrolled in the Master of Accounting program at William & Mary's Raymond A. Mason School of Business. His personal-best marks of 10.8 in the 100m, 21.72 in the 200m, and 48.22 in the 400m would all have ranked in the top-three at the Colonial Athletic Association Championships in 2019, and would all rank him top-10 in W&M school history in those events.
