12 Year Old Tapestry Student Is Setting World Track Records

Always fun to celebrate the talent of Buffalo teens.  So, this report from WIVB caught our eye at the Breeze.

"Tapesty head coach Dan Tryon needed just three words to describe the talent 7th grader Jada Kenner displays on the track.  "She's real special," he said."

 

Tapestry High School is on 65 Great Arrow Avenue in Buffalo.

This coach is excited and should be.  Kenner is a remarkable 12-year-old.  She set the world record this past weekend for the 200 meter race.  She clocked in at 23.72.

"Sometimes you look at her and it's like, it can't be true," added Tryon.  "It doesn't look like it's real because she's moving so fast."

Jada also set records in the indoor season, with a new world best in the 300 meter race.

As Jada continues with her racing career she says she has one goal.

"Be the fastest runner in the world," she said.  "Women and men -- just be the fastest in the world."

You go Jada!!!
