During the course of his athletic career at Florida International, Letterlough won the 2006 Sun Belt Conference championship,[2] set school records in the hammer throw and weight throw[3] and was named Sun Belt Conference athlete of the week.[4] During this time, he also set Cayman national records in the hammer throw, discus throw, and weight throw and served as the captain for the Cayman Islands team at the 2005 Island Games.

Letterlough graduated from Florida International with a finance degree in 2006, but remained in Florida to continue training and improved his national record in the hammer throw to 58.10 meters in 2007. Later that season, he also represented the Cayman Islands at the Pan American Games. Letterlough then moved north at the end of 2007 to join Bondarchuk's training group in Canada. Since the move, he has steadily increased his national record. He most recently improved the record of 62.54m on 5 June 2011 in Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada. Letterlough also continues to represent the Cayman Islands in international championships and won his fourth Island Games silver medal in 2011.
