WELCOME TO ROBERT PREMO'S
TRACK AND FIELD WEBSITE

My sisters, Jackie and Jeanine, and I were born in Vietnam and we attended schools around the world. However, we all graduated from Ygnacio Valley High School (YV) in Concord, CA; Jeanine and I attended junior college at Diablo Valley College (DVC) in Pleasant Hill, CA.

I was on the track & field teams at YV and DVC and hold the YV record in the 100-HighHurdles(14.2) and DVC records in the 110-HighHurdles(14.32) and 400-IntermediateHurdles(51.35); see the DVC Track & Field Record Board. Also, between YV and DVC (1990), I was on an International Sports Tour (IST) that included high school athletes that attended the World Track & Field Championship in Helsinki, Finland and then we competed in the Soviet Union; see the IST Alumni Roster.

After receiving a sports scholarship, I went to Montana State University (MSU) in Bozeman, MT and graduated with a BA in Graphics Design. I was on the MSU Track & Field Team and was the 1995 Big Sky Conference champion in the intermediate hurdles, see MSU Track History/Records.

This was something that my Dad recently wrote about my track accomplishments, "I reviewed the entire IST Alumni Roster and found that Robert has the best time in the HighHurdles(14.4) of all USA athletes listed. However, these were not world class athletes as Robert was just below that level. I was at two meets in which he did compete against the best in the world. Robert was in the Prefontaine Classic Track Meet held in Eugene and took second in the 110-HighHurdles to Dan Obrien, the world record holder in the decathalon. He also competed at a track meet held at San Jose College in the 400-IntermediateHurdle event which was won by the world record holder, Kevin Young. Robert didn't place but he was still in the photo I took at the finish line. Needless to say, I am very proud of his accomplishments in track..." 8/9/02-Click to go to Dad's Home Page
