One of the best if not the best jumper New Jersey high school track and field has ever seen has chosen the University of Georgia for next fall!
The below section was written last Spring as she was selected the Top Jumper in the state! **There is a small update needed however as she continued onto World Youth Championships and placed third in the Triple with a State Record mark of 44-11!!!! US #2 all-time mark! She placed second in the Long Jump at Worlds as well with an amazing mark of 20-11.75!
Congratulation Keturah!
