Gabriel Jones joined the CUI Coaching Staff in 2026 as a graduate assistant coach working with the jumpers. He specializes in the triple jump, while also having a passion for long jump and the short sprints including the 60-meter, 100-meter, and the 4x100 meter relay.
He competed at Concordia University Irvine primarily in the triple jump while also competing in long jump and the short sprints. He is the school record holder for the men's 4x100-meter relay and is the school record holder in the men's outdoor triple jump. In 2023, he earned All-West Region honors in the men's triple jump and also had a top three finish in the men's triple jump at the Pacwest Conference Championships the same year. He received the Dean's List Honors multiple times during his time at the university and graduated with a degree in Graphic Design.
His experience as both a student-athlete and graduate of the university gives him a unique perspective on the athlete experience and a strong connection to the program and it's community. Gabriel is committed to helping student-athletes reach their full potential, while encouraging them to become better individuals by the time they depart from the university.
He is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Organizational Leadership.Â
