BROOKS PR COVERAGE:
REPLAYS | RESULTS | INTERVIEWS
Andrew Jones added another major result to his senior season on Sunday at the Brooks PR Invitational.
The Klein Collins (Texas) standout won the boys 110-meter hurdles in a wind-legal 13.14 seconds, setting a new meet record in Renton, Washington.
For Jones, the performance was another major result in a season already loaded with national-level marks. Earlier this spring, he ran 12.97 at the Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays, the fastest all-conditions 110-meter hurdles time listed in Texas this season. That race came with a +2.8 wind reading, above the legal limit, but Jones also produced a legal 13.15 at the same meet with a +1.9 tailwind.
At Brooks PR, he came within one-hundredth of that legal-season best while winning on a national stage.
Jones entered the meet after sweeping the hurdles at the UIL Class 6A state championships. In Austin, he won the 110-meter hurdles in 13.01 and came back to take the 300-meter hurdles in 36.00, securing two state titles in one of the country's toughest track and field classifications.
His senior season has also included historic work in the 300-meter hurdles. Jones ran 35.07 earlier this spring to break Robert Griffin III's long-standing Texas high school record, then lowered his best again to 34.97.
The Brooks PR result added another layer to that résumé. Against a national invitational field, Jones delivered a wind-legal 13.14, left with the meet record and continued one of the strongest high school hurdles seasons in the country.
