A 2022 graduate of Tohopekaliga High School, Garcia follows several high school teammates to DSC.  He is one of six Tohopekaliga High School runners who have built the Falcon program into a national caliber program.  

2022 Season Outlook:  Garcia looks to be a prominent member of the Falcon top five.  He will need to solicit the help from his more experienced sophomore teammates to make an impact in the post season.   

Coach Wilson Comments:  "Jayven had a very solid summer of training and came into preseason training ready to go.  He has already shown that he has the ability to run at a high level."     

High School Coach:  Mathew Fenn

  • 3200 meters: 9:49
  • 5k Cross Country: 17:13

Academic Interest:  Computer Science

Why did you choose Daytona State College:  Best opportunity to run, was familiar with people on the team, saw the success of the program and that some have moved on to Division I schools.
