Staff member wins trophy at Mr. USC contest

Staff member Jason Smith, a research technician in the biology department, took first place in the heavyweight division during the 27th annual Mr. and Ms. USC Bodybuilding and Fitness Competition April 17.

Smith, who has a master’s degree in biology from USC, trains at the Strom Thurmond Wellness and Fitness Center.

“This is the first time I’ve ever entered any bodybuilding contest,” he said. “I talked to the judges afterwards and they said I had a lot of potential but that I needed more definition, which is why I didn’t win the title.”

That title, Mr. USC, went to lightweight division winner Patrick Kelley, a freshman from Mauldin, S.C.
