Escambia Elementary Student Is National Track Champion
August 20, 2018
An Escambia County elementary school student is national track champion.
Camron Chandler, 8, only started running track back in April.
At the AAU Junior Olympics in Des Moines, Iowa, early this month, the Longleaf Elementary student finished first in the finals with a time of 13:55. That just nine-hundreths of second shy of a national record.
