Jason Stomps '10 | Athletic Hall of Fame Class of 2022

Hillsdale's first-ever national champion at the NCAA Division II level, Stomps came to Hillsdale from Macomb Lutheran North as a unrecruited freshman who had barely competed in track and field in high school and whose focus was on academics. But talked into trying out for the track and field team by a thrower who recognized his potential, Stomps quickly developed into one of the best hammer throw competitors in the country, earning four All-American honors, a national runner-up finish in the outdoor hammer throw, and, on March 12, 2010, a Division II national title in the indoor weight throw with a winning mark of 21.55 meters. Over a decade later, Stomps still holds the Hillsdale program records in both the weight throw and hammer throw.
