Athletic Excellence

The 5-foot-8, 150-pound senior won four gold medals and set three state records at the Class 5A state meet this past season, leading the Panthers to a second-place finish as a team. McCallum set state records in the 100- and 200-meter dashes and as the anchor on the winning 4x100-meter relay team. He also won the long jump. McCallum’s 100 time of 10.13 seconds ranked No. 1 nationally among prep competitors in 2022 at the time of his selection and No. 8 on the all-time list. His time of 20.71 in the 200 ranked No. 8 in the country this spring. He won the national championship in the 100 at New Balance Nationals Outdoor and he earned All-American status by finishing second in the 200 and sixth in the long jump.
