Jessica Wyatt of Thompson, N.D., has signed with the Jimmie track and field team.

Wyatt, who has PRs of 17.1 in the 100 hurdles, 110 in the javelin and 14-0 in the long jump, could be a potential multi-eventer.

“Jessica is a nice person and she will be a positive addition to our team. I believe Jessica thinks of herself as a hurdler, but she obviously has other talents as well,” said JC women’s coach Jim Clark. “I think Jamestown will be a good fit for her as a student and as an athlete. I look forward to Jessica becoming a Jimmie.”

Wyatt is the daughter of Liz Welsh. She plans to study education at JC.
