Salpointe grad Lanne gets call to Texas Hall

After Colleen Lanne left Salpointe Catholic in 1999, accepting a swimming scholarship from the Texas Longhorns, she went on to join Lacey Nymeyer John and Caitlin Leverenz as one of the three greatest female swimmers in Tucson history. Now married and the mother of two young sons living in Austin, Texas, Colleen Lanne Cox, became a 22-time All-American for the Longhorns and at the 2004 Athens Olympics won a silver medal in the 4x100 freestyle relay. Cox, the daughter of ex-UA defensive back Justin Lanne also won four NCAA championships. It was announced last week that she will be inducted into the Longhorn Sports Hall of Fame on Nov. 7 and honored during halftime of the Texas-West Virginia football game.
