Jaguars Roar Through Regionals – Next Stop, USA Junior Olympics

Monday, July 19th, 2010

Go Jaguars! Earlier this July, the North Omaha Club’s Jaguars track team had a medal-winning outing on the final day of the Region 8 USA Track and Field Championships. The team was led by strong performances from Shannon Brewer and Ahmani Green – both took first place in the 100 meter dash in their age divisions. Brewer is the defending national champion in his age division in the same event.

These two great youth athletes will join eight other Jaguars who qualified for the USA Track and Field National Junior Olympics being held July 27th – August 1st in Sacramento, CA.
