He competed collegiately for the Texas Tech Red Raiders and won three Big 12 Conference titles (2009 and 2011 outdoors, 2009 indoors).

He gained entry to study a major in accounting at Texas Tech University, which was also the alma mater of his father.

The following year he was only seventh at the Big 12 indoors, but performed much better outdoors: he came third at the Big 12 meet with a personal record of 13.86 seconds then improved to 13.65 seconds to make the final at the NCAA Men's Outdoor Track and Field Championship, where he came seventh.

A personal best of 13.23 seconds to win at the Big 12 championships saw him ranked tenth in the world that year.

Nationally, he finished just off the 60 m hurdles podium in fourth place and was eliminated in the semi-finals at the 2012 United States Olympic Trials.

He placed sixth at the 2013 USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships and ended the year with a season's best of 13.35 seconds for the 110 m hurdles.
