Lori “Lolo” Jones is an American track and field and bobsled athlete who specializes in the 60 and 100 meter hurdles.
Former Lady Tiger Jazmine Fenlator and two-time Olympic hurdler Lolo Jones will be an ESPN analyst at the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships this weekend, where the No. 1 Lady Tigers will compete for the title.
An injury kept Jones from competing, so she attended the meet as a sideline reporter, which she said was odd. She compared it to Kobe Bryant working as an analyst on the sidelines of a championship.
“I had the fastest time in the world, and I literally had to interview the girls as they cross the line,” Jones said. “And after the race I still had the fastest time in the world.”
The gig at ESPN this weekend would help her ease into a life after competition while also allowing her to stay involved in the sport she loves
