KJ Nembhard has plenty of speed but it was fortitude that earned him junior boys 400-metre dash gold medal at OFSAA recently.
Nembhard pushed through the pain in a big way to win the gold in a time of 48.67, a personal best and just shy of the OFSAA record of 48.46.
It’s the first provincial track and field gold medal won by a Simcoe Composite School athlete since the mid-1980s. Nembhard just started running the 400 metres this year and was competing against the best 400 runners in Ontario.
