British sprinter Louie Hinchliffe has become the first European to win the men’s 100m at the NCAA Championships.<\/b><\/p>\n

The 21-year-old, from Sheffield, ran 9.95 seconds in Eugene, Oregon, to claim the US collegiate title.<\/p>\n

He is now the sixth quickest British sprinter and his time was the ninth fastest in the world this year and the best by a European.<\/p>\n

Hinchliffe races for the University of Houston, where nine-time Olympic champion Carl Lewis is head coach.<\/p>\n

“I got out hard and it was kind of level, my form probably wasn’t the best, but I gave everything to get to that line [first],” said Hinchliffe.<\/p>\n

He is set to compete at the UK Championships in Manchester later this month, which act as the British trials for this summer’s Paris Olympics.<\/p>\n

Hinchliffe won the English national title in 2022 and spent the 2023 season with Washington State before transferring to Houston to work with Lewis.<\/p>\n

Coming into 2024, his personal best was 10.17, but he has gradually improved it this year and ran a wind-assisted 9.84 in the NCAA regionals two weeks ago.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
