Jay Grad Takes The Field For USA Jaguars

A 2009 graduate of Jay High School  is part of the first ever University South Alabama football team — a team that is now 4-0.

Dustin James, who graduated seventh in his class at JHS, is a 6-foot 290 pound member of the Jaguars’ offensive line. He is on the scout team this year, and he has had several tackles so far this season.

James earned four football letters at Jay and was twice named all-state and all-area.  He lettered six times in track and field and was fifth at the state 1A meet in the shot put as a senior. He also lettered three time in weightlifting.

He is a civil engineering major who enjoys working on cars in his spare time.

James, 18, is the son of Brian and Tracy James of Jays. Brian James is a professional wrestler that once the Intercontinental champion and was a five-time tag team champion known as the “Road Dogg”.

He has two younger sisters: Amberly, 13, plays volleyball, basketball and softball; and Hanna, 6, who plays tee ball. Both attend Jay School.
