“Justin Horne had already smashed the state record in the 110 hurdles by Week Two of the 2023 season. But the victories kept piling up throughout the season as the Texas Tech University-bound senior earned U.S. Top 25 rankings in both hurdle events en route to a sweep at states.”

Athletic Excellence


The 6-foot-2, 215-pound senior swept the hurdling events at the Class 5A state meet this past season, leading the Patriots to a third place finish as a team. Horne broke the tape in the 110-meter hurdles in a time of 13.82 seconds. He won the 300 hurdles in 37.25. He graduated as the state record-holder in the 100 hurdles—a personal-best clocking of 13.64, which ranked No. 24 nationally among prep boys in 2023. His PR of 37.24 in the 300 at the Class 5A district meet was nation’s No. 23 time in the event this spring.
