Walter J. Landry Jr., was a four-year triple-jumper for the Ragin? Cajuns Track and Field and Cross Country teams from 1994-1997. During his USL athletic career he captured the top honor all college athletes strive to achieve - All American. But, Landry did it four times as the NCAA triple jump champion each of his four years. He was also a key factor in the four Sun Belt Conference Team Championship titles won by the Ragin? Cajuns from 1994-1997.

Today, Landry resides in Georgia where he is a member of the Pleasant Hill Baptist Church and serves on the Transportation Ministry.
