INDIANAPOLIS - Senior long jumper Sean Majors (Fredericksburg, Texas / Fredericksburg) of Trinity University Track & Field will make his fourth trip to a NCAA III track & field national championship event in as many opportunities, the organization announced Friday.

The two-time All-American in long jump spent nearly the entire outdoor season within the qualifying field as he opened the 2022 campaign with a 7.20-meter leap in the Trinity Invitational in early March, and steadily improved throughout the season while breaking his own school-record in the event twice before landing at 7.52 meters at the Our Lady of the Lake Saints Last Chance meet last week.

Majors' standing school-record from the OLLU competition ranks sixth overall in NCAA III this season, while all of his top five results this season would rank within the top 18 nationally.

Coach Speak

"We are very excited for Sean to get another chance at nationals," Head Coach Marcus Whitehead remarked. "He has been locked in all season and we can't wait to see what he does next week."

"Lots of national top-25 marks from the team this year that usually qualify," Whitehead continued, "but this was an uncharacteristically tough year to get in. I'm excited to raise the bar for next season."
