NOAH SHARP MAKES THE BIG TIME
The Athens Courier has a fantastic article about our amazing Noah Sharp. Pick up a hard copy today or click on this link: ELKMONT SENIOR WINS GOLD
HIGHLIGHTS:
The first time Noah Sharp jumped over a hurdle, it was in a competitive track meet. Just over two years later, the Elkmont senior stood on a podium as the 3A state champion in the 300-meter hurdles competition.
"He really didn't have any training in the event he won,” said Elkmont track coach Barry Pugh. “The only time he ever saw a real hurdle was at the meets. It's a feat in itself that he was able to win. He just had a knack for it, we watched some YouTube videos and that's about it.”
