Franklin signs with Southern Methodist University

Jasmine Franklin will continue her track career at the collegiate level after signing her letter of intent with Southern Methodist University. As a standout athlete for PHS, Franklin made an impressive showing at last year’s State UIL track meet, bringing home the gold medal in the 200 meter dash with a time of 24:26. She was also a member of the 4x100 meter relay, and 4x200 meter relay, where the team brought home a silver medal in both events. Jasmine was also on the 4x100 meter relay that finished 6th in the state in 2022. 

 

Head coach Kevin Adkins stated, “I am extremely proud of Jasmine, and getting the opportunity to watch her sign with SMU was an honor. She is one of the hardest working young ladies I have ever coached. The time and commitment she has made to track and field has finally paid off, and I couldn’t be more proud of her.”

 

“When I watch Jaz run, I know I am watching something truly special; she is so talented, and like most of her medals, she has a heart of gold,” coach Erika Stanley said. “I am so proud of her and cannot wait to see her fly for SMU!”

 

Her achievements are a testament to her hard work, dedication, and natural talent, and she is sure to make a positive impact on her new team at Southern Methodist University.

Quick Tip is a support system that allows students to communicate with school administrators. While the district already has many programs to help students deal with challenges such as bullying behaviors, stress, peer pressure, and family problems, Quick Tip helps break the code of silence often experienced by students because it allows them to report concerns to administrators anonymously.
