Brittany Peters of the Stonewall Rams track & field team is this week’s Home Run Sports Urban High School athlete of the week. This 5’5” athlete medaled in all four of her events at the recent Milk Provincial Track & Field Championships. She won gold in the Javelin with a throw of 35.69m and silver in the triple jump with a distance of 10.97m, 4 x 100 m relay in a time of 52.38 sec, and 4 x 400 m relay in a time of 4:14.55 min. Coach Christy Steeves states, “Brittany is a true competitor, and her motivation and focus is clear every time she steps on that track or field. She is successful because she works at it and the time she put in paid off this past weekend. Brittany is a great role model for the younger athletes on the team”.
