What famous country singer went to college on a track scholarship for throwing the javelin? I am not a fan of country music but I like because of that! Funny reason to like him for but I think most of the wackos (myself included) who post messages on this sight would probably like him for that as well!

Could have sworn she was more famous for the shot put.

I don't think he actually went on a scholarship because I don't think his name ever appeared on eithier a high school list or in any major meet results his school competed in. But he was definitely on the team.

If you are serious about it being Tom Jones, you are mistaken.... Tom Jones' song was "Delilah", a completely different song.

Don't know whether he really received a scholarship, though I've seen it reported over and over in his biography as a "partial" scholarship -- which could mean a few bucks for a semester or two. Hey, it makes good press. Never seen any performance data, so unlike "Little Jo" Cartwright, it's most likely a good urban (cowboy) legend.

Re: Music/Track Trivia

speaking of music types who competed in track... I think I recall that Alice Cooper ran Cross-Country ?
