SAN FRANCISCO: Acclaimed athletics coach Trevor Graham was convicted on Thursday of one count of lying to federal agents investigating the BALCO doping scandal.
A federal jury found that Graham lied over his relationship with Angel Heredia, a Mexican athlete who testified he sold performance-enhancing drugs to Graham and his athletes.
The jury, however, could not reach a verdict on two other counts against Graham, the former coach of elite Olympic sprinters Marion Jones, Tim Montgomery and Justin Gatlin.
