Trindon Holliday is one of the fastest men in the world, and is a dual athlete for Louisiana State University. Holliday competes in both football and track at LSU, and excels in both. Trindon is the Fighting Tiger athlete under the spotlight this week.

Trindon Holliday is a 5'5", 161-pound senior whose full name is Trindon Jerard Holliday, born April 27, 1986, in Baton Rouge to his mother Gwendolyn Richardson. Holliday attended Northeast High School in Zachary, LA.

While at LSU, this dual athlete is majoring in business. He is currently the fastest man in all of college football.

In high school in 2005, Holliday posted the nation's fastest indoor times in the 55- and 60-meter dashes. He won a 2A state title in spring 2005 by winning the 100- and 200-meter dashes.

On the football field, he accumulated over 4,000 yards rushing and 60 touchdowns while playing for Northeast High.

At LSU, Trindon Holliday has played football since fall 2006. He has rushed for a total of 639 yards, and has had 1,552 total return yards in his college career. He has scored six total touchdowns as an LSU Tiger.

Holliday has run track for the Tigers since spring 2007, and his specialty is sprints. His main events are the 60-meter and 100-meter dashes. Over his tenure at LSU, Holliday is an individual national champion, a five time all-American, a two-time SEC Champion, and also has received All-SEC honors five times.

Trindon broke Xavier Carter's school record for the 100-meter dash as he captured the SEC title in 2007. Since running a 10.08 second 100-meter dash, Trindon Holliday has broken his own record many times.

For the Beijing Olympic Games in 2008, he came up just short when he advanced to the semifinal round and finished 11th in his first Olympic trials experience.

His next football game is tomorrow in Oxford, Mississippi, versus the Ole Miss Rebels. Last time LSU played in Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, Holliday ran a kickoff back for a touchdown. LSU-Ole Miss is scheduled for a 2:30 p.m. kickoff on CBS.

Since his arrival on campus at LSU, Trindon Holliday has become a huge fan favorite in both football and track. Fans love watching Holliday scamper around the field while dodging defenders. He is pretty much unstoppable when he finds a hole.

His days are now numbered as an LSU Tiger, with only one more home game in Death Valley. He has three more games in his college career, and is looking to make his mark on the football field for the Bayou Bengals.

This is the third article of a series called "Tiger Athlete Spotlight". This series will feature a different athlete in each article who is a current member of any Louisiana State University athletic team. The next athlete under the spotlight will be veteran Tiger Basketball player Tasmin Mitchell.
