PARIS — Noah Lyles has some lofty goals he wants to accomplish at the Paris Games. At the top of the list is becoming the king of sprints by winning the 100 and 200 meters and maybe a relay or two. That would put him in a category with the likes of Usain Bolt, Carl Lewis and Michael Johnson. Another priority for the charismatic sprinter is elevating the popularity of track. He's already started that process by starring in not one but two documentaries. He's adding a dose of fun, too. He arrived for the 100-meter final during the U.S. Olympic trials alongside Snoop Dogg and carrying his uniform in a briefcase. He then went to work on the track.
