Fil-Am Cray braces for 400m hurdles conquestRIO DE JANEIRO: Filipino-American Eric Cray wowed to put on a good show in Rio and hoped to make it to the finals of the men’s 400m hurdles in his first Olympics. His time of 49.40 seconds in the 400m hurdles stands as the SEA Games record. Cray traveled 17 hours from El Paso, and should have not much problem with jetlag because there’s just a three-hour difference between Texas and Rio. I feel real good,” said Cray just moments after he arrived at the Athletes Village here. However, Cray said it’s in the Olympics where he wants to leave a mark or at least make an impression.
