Eastern Washington University Athletics

White won six NAIA championships in the high jump and triple jump from 1978-80. Through the 2025 season, he still holds Eastern's record in the triple jump outdoors (52-8) and his best long jump (25-1 1/4) was a school record for 40 years (now second). White helped lead Eastern to four NAIA District 1 titles from 1977-80, leading Eastern to a sixth-place finish in the NAIA Outdoor Championships in 1980 after a fourth-place finish in 1978. His two titles in 1978 helped lift Eastern to a second-place finish in the NAIA All-Sports Trophy, the school's highest placing ever. In 1980, when Eastern had dual membership in NAIA and NCAA, he finished second in the high jump (7-0 3/4) and seventh in the triple jump (50-0) at the NCAA Division II Championships to lead Eastern to a fourth-place finish. He also lettered for Eastern basketball teams in 1978 and 1979. The 1980 Eastern track and field team he competed on was inducted into the Eastern Athletics Hall of Fame in 2019.
