Final answer:

The primary contributor of ATP during sprinting would be the phosphagen system.

Step-by-step explanation:

The primary contributor of ATP during a sprinting across campus would be the phosphagen system. This system uses creatine phosphate to supply energy to the muscles at a high rate for a short duration, typically around 8-10 seconds. It is the fastest system but has a limited energy supply.
