Stillman's Henderson on U.S. team for World Championships

TUSCALOOSA, Alabama | Second chances do not come often, but leaving a winning mark in the sand makes all the difference when they do.

 

Stillman Tigers track and field star Jeffrey Henderson will represent the United States in the World Championships on Aug. 10-18 in Moscow, Russia. Henderson will be competing for the U.S. for the second time in three years.

 

Henderson was recently named the fastest man in the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference and placed second in the long jump at the 2013 U.S. Track and Field Championships in Des Moines, Iowa, which helped him qualify for the national team.

 

Henderson competed in the long jump in the 2010 World Indoor Championships in Doha, Qatar, and said he is competing this time for redemption.
