Vincent Anthony Mary Becker (born 9 October 1947) is an Irish former sprinter and rugby union international.[1]
A product of Mungret College, Becker was a Lansdowne and Leinster winger, capped twice for Ireland in their winning 1974 Five Nations Championship campaign.[2] He had started his rugby union career as a scrum-half before transitioning to the wing, a position to which he brought considerable pace, as a two-time Irish national 100 metres champion.[3]
In July 1971, Becker ran a national 100m record of 10.85 seconds in London.[4]
