DES MOINES — The ride to the state long jump championship was smooth for Jennifer Jorgensen.

It’s the ride home that might be a little rocky.

With her third consecutive long jump title in the books — a Class 1A record — Jorgensen officially passed her father Mike for number of career state golds.

Ask Mike about it, though, and the discussion turns into debate.

‘‘We were arguing about it on the way down,’’ Jennifer smiled. ‘‘He said that indoor titles should count. ‘‘I’m sure he’ll come up with some excuse for this one.’’

In her final season of track, the Pacific basketball recruit was more laid back than ever when she entered the pits.

‘‘It’s more relaxing each time out,’’ Jorgensen said. ‘‘It was a little different this year, with some of the girls moving up a class.’’

Nobody even came close to Jorgensen on Thursday.
