A self-described introvert, Jamal joins us and shows us the personality that has led him to being a Division II head coach at such a young age. We start in Detroit as a high schooler who names himself captain his sophomore year and learn of his ability to coach that culminated in a 400m runner setting the Michigan state record as well as a future Olympian in Anavia Battle. Now as a college coach, he works to build up the program at Mansfield based on the experience he learned from the University of Southern Indiana.
