http://www.axtora.com/homesites/us/wisconsin/angelo/content/6d481e18babee44d2006255907828263.html BEIJING Bershawn Batman Jackson came to China with gold on his mindThe 400meter hurdler will take a bronze medal home to Raleigh NC instead But Jackson took that medal gracefully Monday especially since the only two men who beat him were AmericansIn the 123 sweep by the US in the event the 3 was occupied by a 5foot7 154pound athlete who earned his Batman nickname as a kid for two reasonsFirst his ears stuck out Second he flew so fluidly over the hurdlesIt's a blessing Jackson kept saying Monday after he won the bronze in front of 91000 people at the Bird's Nest stadium It's a blessingAnd when you hear more of his story you'll likely agree Jackson who grew up in one of Miami's poorest neighborhoods overcame large odds to get to Beijing in the first placeHe could still be on the streets of Miami either hurting somebody or having somebody hurt him said George Williams who coached Jackson in college at St Augustine's in Raleigh and still coaches him today Instead he's going back to school this fall to finish his degree and he's got an Olympic medalJackson's mother a painter was working in Miami on Monday helping to paint a local hospital His father was at work too in a warehouse They couldn't come to Beijing But as long as Tropical Storm Fay cooperated they and Jackson's relatives were planning an Olympic party to watch the event on tapedelayJackson had hoped they would be watching him win a gold medal at that party But the day he had pointed to for years didn't work out exactly as he plannedFirst of all he drew Lane 7 an outside lane he doesn't like Then he didn't leap over the fourth of 10 hurdles like he wanted to That threw him off and before long he had altered his steps He jumped another hurdle off the wrong foot entirely By the last few hurdles he was clipping every one instead of clearing them cleanlyI tried too hard Jackson said I made so many mistakes because I wanted to win so badInstead Jackson barely held off Jamaica's Danny McFarlane for the bronze ensuring the US sweep Angelo Taylor won the race going away in 4725 seconds Kerron Clement was second in 4798 and Jackson was third in 4806Jackson was always small and fast By the time he was a senior at Miami's Central High he had made a world junior track team for the US That was one of the most important events in his life he said It showed him that you could see the world on track and field's dime if you were good enoughI realized track could get me out of the streets of Miami Jackson saidJackson was supposed to star at South Carolina on a track scholarship according to Williams but then didn't come through on his grades He went back home to Miami Then Williams got a call from an old high school buddy of his named Jesse Holt who was also one of Jackson's old coaches Holt told Williams that Jackson was at loose ends and that he should take a look at himWilliams a legendary track coach who was the US Olympic head track coach in 2004 did take a look Jackson ended up coming to St Augustine's a historically black college in Raleigh with an enrollment of about 1600 studentsJackson sat out one year to concentrate on school and then ran for two until he got good enough to turn pro Williams helped negotiate Jackson's contract with Nike he said and one of the provisions is that Nike continues to pay for Jackson's schooling Jackson said he has 13 hours left to take at St Augustine's and hopes to finish up his degree in accounting this fallWhen I asked Jackson who he most wanted to show his medal to back in Raleigh he said: The people at St Augustine's College It's a small place but I want to show them that no matter what school you come from the sky is the limit You can do anything you put your mind toJackson 25 said he would definitely compete through the next Olympics in 2012 in London And Williams predicted a different color of medal for that Olympics Said the coach: We'll take this bronze now But we'll be taking the gold in the futureMcClatchyTribune Honoring a Member Through a Lemonade Stand
