A two-time National Champion in the triple jump, Jared Lewis joins the Cal U coaching staff as a graduate assistant in 2019.
Lewis captured both national titles during the indoor season at the NCAA Division III level while at Stockton (N.J.), which is led by Jayson Resch who served as an assistant coach with the Vulcans from 2010-12. Lewis closed his prolific career with the Ospreys as a nine-time NCAA All-American (triple jump seven times, long jump twice) and 11-time individual champion (triple jump six times, long jump five times) at the New Jersey Athletic Conference (NJAC) Championships.
A native of New Jersey, Lewis claimed his first national championship in the triple jump as a junior with a mark of 15.05 meters (49-4.5 feet). He later set his personal record in the event at the 2017 NCAA Outdoor Championships with a distance of 15.52 meters (50-11.0 feet), which placed him second at the national meet. During the 2018 indoor season, Lewis defended his national title the following year with a leap of 15.28 meters (50-1.75 feet). He then closed his career at the NCAA Outdoor Championships by finishing fifth in the triple jump at the national meet.
Lewis earned his bachelor’s degree in hospitality and tourism management from Stockton in 2018. He is currently pursuing his master’s degree in sport management.
