Bryan Howard (born October 7, 1976) is an American former
sprinter.[1] Howard ran for
Canyon Springs High School in
Moreno Valley, California. He was the 1993
CIF California State Meet champion in the
100 meters. He was unable to repeat in 1994 due to a
false start.[2] Earlier in the season, he had used his fast start to set the National High School Record of 5.69 in the 50 meters at the
Sunkist Invitational. That record still stands.[3] The year before, it was announced he had also broken the record, formerly held by
Bill Green since 1979. However Paul Turner of
University City High in San Diego was later ruled to be the winner and recordholder,[4] which lasted exactly one year. He was also twice runner-up in the
200 meters, in 1993 and 1994, in 1993 behind
Calvin Harrison.[5] The 1994 race.
