In his first appearance at the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials, Freedom High’s Mike Morse, now a sophomore at USF, has advanced to the finals of the men’s long jump. Morse qualified with his preliminary round mark of 25 feet, 6.75 inches late Friday night in Eugene, Ore. The finals will be held Sunday at 6:15 p.m. Eastern Time. The top 12 jumpers advanced and Morse, USF’s school record holder at 25-11, grabbed the last qualifying spot.

In the men’s shot put, Tampa Baptist’s Garrett Johnson, a Florida State and Oxford University graduate, reached tonight’s finals of the shot put with his prelimary-round throw of 64-1.75. That was the No. 10 throw out of 12 finalists. Finals are at 7:40 ET.

Earlier this afternoon, Jeff Demps, who just graduated from South Lake High in Groveland, ran the second fastest 100-meter time ever by a prep sprinter with his 10.12. That moved him on to the quarterfinals along with such names as Walter Dix of Florida State, who led all qualifiers at 9.96, and former Brooksville Hernando High and University of Florida standout John Capel, who went 10.16 for the 11th-fastest time of the first round. Quarterfinals are tonight at 8:01 p.m. ET.
