Sherron Walker, nearly 50 years later, is still the Long Beach State record holder in the long jump with a mark of 21 feet set during the 1978 season. Her efforts helped Long Beach State Women’s Track claim its first conference championship in 1978, and she became one of the program’s first All-Americans after finishing in fifth place in the long jump that same season. She was also an Olympian, competing in the 1976 Montreal Summer Games after finishing second at the U.S. Olympic Trials in the long jump.
