Sheri Lewis LaBrant and Cole LaBrant are a Mother/Son team on The Amazing Race 28.

Sheri & Cole more often than not found themselves trailing the other teams due to Sheri's age leaving her not as physically-adept as their competitors, her fear of enclosed spaces, their shared fear of heights, and difficulty with navigation, resulting in them coming in last on two Non-Elimination Legs, sparing them from elimination both times. This, combined with other teams making mistakes or being targeted ahead of the mother-son tandem, as well as their own grit and tenacity, allowed Sheri & Cole to surprisingly make the final three. In the final leg, Sheri took two tries to complete the first Roadblock, putting them in second behind Dana & Matt. Sheri & Cole were never able to close the gap, but managed to hold their position to claim a 2nd place finish.

2: Leg 6 had no mandatory rest period between legs, and all teams were ordered to continue racing. Sheri & Cole did not have to face a Speed Bump during Leg 7, despite coming in last during Leg 6.
3: This leg had two Roadblocks and no detour. The team member who sat out the first Roadblock was required to perform the second one.
