SHELBY JACKSON MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP
1986 to 2001

At the end of each season, the Manhattan Track Club pays tribute to one of its great athletes with
the Shelby Jackson Memorial Track Scholarship.
Shelby Jackson was the type of athlete that any coach would hope to have on their team. Aside from his
natural athletic ability and pleasant nature, Shelby's work/practice ethics exemplified what every athlete
should strive to achieve.
The untimely death of Shelby leaves us all with heavy hearts, while at the same time reminding us how very
precious the lives of our children are. We will always remember Shelby and are proud to offer a track
scholarship in his memory.
The Manhattan Track Club coaches and Board will select an athlete at the end of
the season, that has proven worthy of this scholarship. The chosen athlete will be announced at the
picnic closing out our season.
