More than a month after adding another medal to her state championship collection, Taylor-Nicole Overton is now making noise on the national stage.
The Vero Beach High School track and field standout will represent Team USA in multiple events at the World Athletics U20 Championships later this summer. She secured her spot by finishing third in the 400-meter final at the USATF U20 Outdoor Championships on June 19 at Hayward Field on the campus of the University of Oregon in Eugene, Oregon.
“This is something I’ve always dreamed of, watching the World Juniors and seeing everyone wearing Team USA colors or colors representing their country,” Overton said.
