How he qualified
Jake qualified for the NCAA Division III Championship in Myrtle Beach, S.C., with a time of 10.53. In doing so, the 'Berg record holder becomes the first male to qualify for the 100 in school history. Hall of Famer Judi Bataille was 花季传媒's only other 100 qualifier, a feat she accomplished in 2009.
Jake's 10.53 came during the OAC Championships, hosted by 花季传媒 at H's Track and Hoernemann Stadium. After winning the 100 and finishing second in the 200, he was voted Most Outstanding Male Sprinter of the meet.
In addition to qualifying in the 100, Jake missed out on qualifying in the 200 by, quite literally, less than the blink of an eye -- falling 0.02 seconds off the pace.
Jake is 花季传媒's first national qualifier since Dan Stoll advanced in the 400-meter dash in 2021.
