Career

Robinson attended Klein Forest High School in Texas. In 2019, Klein Forest won the Class 6A Men's Track & Field Team State Championship. [2] At the AAU Junior Olympic Games in 2020, Robinson finished second in the boys 17-18 division of the 200m to Robert Gregory, with a wind legal time of 20.91 seconds, and secured a win over 400 metres in a time of 47.00 seconds. [3] [4] He later attended Stephen F. Austin State University, before transferring to Texas A&M University after a year. [5] [6]

Robinson ran 44.91 seconds for the 400 metres on 9 March 2024 in Boston, as he finished runner-up to Christopher Morales Williams at the 2024 NCAA Indoor Championships. [7] [8] It proved to be the second fastest short track 400 metres time recorded worldwide in 2024. [9] The following month, he ran 44.98 seconds for the 400 metres outdoors at the Tom Jones Memorial in Gainesville, Florida, again finishing runner-up to Morales Williams. [10] In June, he ran the anchor leg as Texas A&M won the 4 x 400 metres relay at the 2024 NCAA Outdoor Championships, although he was disqualified from the final of the individual 400 metres race. [11] [12]

Running a time of 32.34 seconds, Robinson broke the Texas A&M school record for the 300 metres at the McFerrin-12 Degree Invitational in January 2025, a time which placed him third on the NCAA all-time list. [13] Robinson placed third over 400 metres at the 2025 NCAA Indoor Championships in 45.54s, behind Will Floyd and Ezekiel Nathaniel. [14] [15] In April 2025, Robinson lowered his personal best to 44.61 seconds for the 400 metres at the Florida Relays in Gainesville. [16] Robinson was a finalist in the individual 400 metres and secured a second place finish running the anchor leg of the 4 x 400 metres relay, as Texas A&M shared the 2025 NCAA Outdoor Championship overall title with the University of Southern California.
