That mark isn't even his best. At a track meet with Houck Middle School in April, the 6-foot-4, 14-year-old cleared 6 feet. Nick started competing in the high jump as a seventh grader at the encouragement of James Decker, a Whiteaker teacher and coach. Decker had seen Nick dunking the ball on the basketball court and knew he was onto something special because of his natural jumping ability. “I just sort of watched the older guys at fi rst and it looked really cool,” Nick said. In short order, he was making the leaps himself and besting his schoolmates in the event. “From the fi rst few practice jumps, Nick began progressing quickly. By the end of his seventh grade year, he was one of the top jumpers for his age in the nation. This year, as he got taller and stronger, his coaches and I could tell this could be season that he did something special,” Decker said.

She saw something strange and told someone about it. Something as simple as that can be very benefi cial,” Howden said. “The biggest thing is for parents to have a good awareness of who their kids are around, have good, open communication around the issues around sexual abuse, and to try to do it in a way that isn't alarmist.

Nick grew a full inch between January and March this year. He credited Decker with helping him excel in the event. “He taught me how to visualize my jumps,” Nick said. “Between that and watching a lot of YouTube video (demonstrations) I was able to step it up.” Decker said Nick's character shows in aspects beyond the fi elds and courts. “He works with our some of the special needs students at our school and is patient and giving when working with them. At the meets, he always rooted on other athletes and was always willing to talk to the other contestants about techniques, warm-ups or anything that might be asked. His positivity rubbed off on his competitors and teammates alike and made those around him better,” Decker said. While the accolades are pouring in from track and fi eld, Nick said the training has helped him perform better in basketball, his fi rst love. “We do a lot of running as part of track and fi eld and it's really helped. I feel like I'm in a lot better shape now,” he said. Enter dicits from 1-9 into the blank spaces. Every row must contain one of each dicit. So must every column, as must every 3x3 square.
