Jamal joins our team with now 3 years of track and field experience on the youth circuit. He seems to have settled in to the long sprints, and is beginning to make great strides on the track. He hopes to continue to improve throughout the season, and into the next. And hopefully he'll find himself in elite company.

 

"Jamal has made drastic improvement in both his work ethic and performance in the short time he's been with us. I think he'll continue to make that progression into the fall and with the training we have in store for him, he'll make a lot of noise for Newton County in the spring of 2013. His intangibles are beginning to fall into place and we hope that what we have in store for him will make him a heck of a sprinter thoughout the remainder of this season, and into the next", says Coach Charles.
