Yes, there is! The short form is "ton". However, it is slang and we only use it in relation to money or speed.

No, there is no short form. A hundred is a hundred. Numbers don't have short forms.
Also, please remember that 'coz' is not a proper word. Don't write it if you want people to take you seriously.

Here is another example from the news here in the UK. A sportsman scored 100 and the headline is as follows:
Alastair Cook dispels doubts with gritty ton.
