Windy but not Worried she Qualified in the Prelims with a Time of 13.56 to advance to the finals. In the Finals Sydnie would run a Personal Best of 12.96, good enough take the podium and Bronze Medalist behind Durham Striders teammates Kayla Moore and Kenyae Austin with thier times of 12.86 and 12.87.
“I thought her efforts were good despite some of the challenges she faced this season,” said LSI Head Coach Alexander Hill. “Overall I’m please with the outcome.
We have a saying at LSI “It doesn’t matter what you do now, what matters is what you do when it counts” and to run a Personal Best, the very last race of the season makes it that more time tested and true. Sydnie has a great deal of talent and potential and at 12 years old we have plenty time to extract her best performances.”
