Jenna Prandini (born November 20, 1992) is an American track and field athlete, known for sprinting, but originally began her career doing jumping events. She is the 2015 National Champion and 2018 National Champion at 200 meters.[1][2] She preceded the National Championship completing her senior year at the University of Oregon[3] winning the 100 meters at the 2015 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships. The previous year she had won the long jump. She also was a runner up in the 200 meters both years, runner up in the long jump in 2015 and third place in the 100 meters in 2014.[4] Jenna is 2nd female to win NCAA 100 meters & National Outdoor 200 meters in the same year (Merlene Ottey, 1982).[5] Prandini qualified for the 2016 Summer Olympics at 200 meters by placing third at the Olympic trials.[6]

Prandini came to Oregon with the same triple threat credentials, winning all three events (100m, 200m and long jump) at the 2011 CIF California State Meet for Clovis High School in Clovis, California.[7] Her junior year saw her winning both the long jump and triple jump, while finishing second in the 100 meters.[8] In 2011, she also won the US Junior Championship in the long jump.[9]

By coincidence, all of Prandini's major championships have essentially occurred at home. The CIF meet is held in Clovis at cross town Buchanan High School, the NCAA Championships and USA Outdoor Championships were at Hayward Field at the University of Oregon, though for the Junior Championships, also at Hayward Field, she moved to Oregon for school three months later.

Professional

With her bests all in 2015, Jenna Prandini has achieved the 2016 Olympic standard in the 100 meters, 200 meters and Long Jump.
