Most Memorable Moment (Your Sport): The most memorable moment would be when we were running at the Elkins High School track and Coach Lane measured it out and though the track was short, so he extended the length of our workout. I remember it being the hardest workout for me and I was bent over trying to catch my breath and saying out loud that I didn’t know if I could finish, but my teammates supported and I finished the workout.
Most Memorable Moment (Outside Your Sport): Always playing games with my teammates.
Who would you consider a role model from your time at D&E?: My role model at D&E has to be Jason Pyles for displaying how a coach should be; inspiring me to coach in the future.

Jarrell also holds D&E outdoor school records in the 100m (11.13), 200m (22.0) and 400m (49.01).

Work hard in the classroom and the sport you play. Always hold onto the moments you have while you are at this College, because it will be over before you know it. Lastly, have an open mind and see that some of your teammates and friends will become some of the best people you will ever know.
