TRACK AND FIELD
T63
World Records: High jump, 1.95m
2024 Outlook: Frech asserted himself as a champion last summer, taking gold in the high jump (T63) at the World Championships and tying his own world record in the process. He also nearly grabbed a second medal in the long jump, missing the podium by a scant 28 centimeters. Still one of the youngest members of the US Parlaympic team at just 19 years old, he’s a prohibitive favorite for at least one gold in Paris and could conceivably bag as many as three medals.
Need to know:
• Co-founder of Angel City Sports
• Was youngest male competitor (age 16) for Team USA at Tokyo Games
Personal:
Age: 19
