The Lowdown

Don't let Mays' stats fool you. He played for one of the top programs in Texas and holds high hopes for his future college career at Oklahoma State. Once he gets to Stillwater, though, Mays should also consider what kind of potential he has on the track. He was one of Texas' most consistent 400m threats in 2017, finishing with the 12th fastest time in the state in the 400m.
