The “Queen” Victoria Has Arrived
I began calling her the “Queen” a few weeks before USATF after watching her burn up the track at the UAGTCA Invitational in Philly, early July. She was effortless and poised as she ran toward the finish line and this didn’t change over the next couple of weeks heading toward Gold in the Triathlon,200m and 400m At USATF Junior Olympics.

She was selected to participate in an invitational WNBA Summer Basketball Camp in New York this week. She loves to draw and build things.
