Track & Field
Jesuit track & field has a long and storied tradition of success – including a 2003 State Championship – which has continued under head coach Andy Wood '92. In Wood's 15 seasons at the helm, the Tigers have won 12 District crowns and captured five Region titles, including back-to-back Region crowns in 2022 & '23. The Tigers also have claimed three consecutive Tampa Bay Private School Championships.
In the spring 2024 season, Donovan Terry '24 (pictured at right) capped off his sensational career by establishing a new school record in the 100 meters (10.52) to go with his records in the 200 meters (21.39) and 4x100 (41.63, with Jarriett Buie '23, Andre Gilbert '23, and Justin Thurman '25). Terry , who earned a full scholarship to Norfolk State, also owns 7 of the 10 fastest 400 meters in school history.
The Tigers won District for the 3rd straight season in 2024, with Terry having an epic meet, winning four events (100, 200, 400, and the 4x400 with King Powell ’27, Diego Alvarado-Borjas ’26, and Kameron Housey ’27) and the Tigers also winning the 4x100 (Angel Ocampo ’24, Champ Givens ’24, S.J. Green '25, and Willy Suarez '24), and 800 meters (Brody Thurston '25). Terry led Jesuit to a runner-up finish at the Region Meet, taking 1st in the 200 and 400. The 2024 Tigers were dominant in winning their 3rd straight Tampa Bay Private School Championships, outpacing the runners-up by 60 points.
Among the top returnees in 2025 are Thurston, Alvarado-Borjas, Thurman, Powell, and Housey; javelin thrower Tucker Witte '25; distance runners Lucas Rupp '26, Cesar Calero '26, and Daniel Dewey '25; pole vaulter Charlie Iler '26; shot put/discus throwers Austin Allen '26 and Robby Dyer '25, and hurdler/jumper Kolt Ohlson '27.
Among the many alumni who have gone on to participate in college track & field are Dante Newberg '15, who became one of the ACC's top decathletes at Florida State, State Champion pole vaulter Nick Catchur '14 at the University of Miami, 800-meter runners Lawson McLeod '22 at Columbia University and Devin Stevens '23 at Arkansas-Little Rock, and Terry at Norfolk State.
