Coach Brownrigg stated Brandon has broke the school record multiple times this season, and he recently qualified for the state meet and will be running in tomorrow in Columbia, MO. 

When we asked Brandon to describe what it takes to become an elite athlete he stated “it takes consistent hard work.” Brandon left shortly after his award to head to Columbia to compete. It was a pleasure speaking with Brandon and we wish him the best of luck this weekend!!
