Jasmine Moore: 2018-19 Gatorade National Girls Track and Field Athlete of the Year

Описание: Jasmine Moore is a relentless competitor.

With a 6A state championship in the long jump and triple jump, you’d think she’d be satisfied. But that’s not Jasmine. She didn’t stop until she was ranked No. 1 in the country in the triple jump, as well as No. 3 all-time. Add a top-three ranking in the long jump to this already stellar résumé, and it’s safe to say that she has made her team at Lake Ridge High School (Texas) extremely proud.

Jasmine also understands the importance of true determination in the classroom. With an A average, she’s landed herself on the elite track & field team at the University of Georgia. Described as someone “with a great desire to excel and a work ethic that is second to none,” Jasmine’s tenacity is clearly admired by those around her.

When she’s not stunning crowds, Jasmine spends time enriching her community. From volunteering locally on behalf of an animal shelter, to supporting the less fortunate at Mission Arlington, it’s clear that Jasmine is absolutely committed to helping her neighbors.
From her tremendous athletic performance, to her rigorous adherence to academic excellence, to the heart with which she serves her community, there is no doubt that Jasmine Moore deserves to be named the 2018-2019 Gatorade National Girls Track & Field Athlete of the Year.
