Brown, known for her outstanding performances in track and field during her time at Wildwood, finished 3rd overall in the Long Jump competition. Her impressive jump of 6.18 meters put her just .3 meters behind the 1st place finisher, Isabella Sokolova from Missouri.
This achievement marks a significant milestone for Brown, who continues to impress with each event she competes in. Her dedication and hard work have clearly paid off, as she continues to elevate her performance on the track.

The Pepsi Florida Relays also saw two other University of Florida Track & Field stars achieve personal bests. Joey Stravato excelled in the Men’s 110M Hurdles with a time of 14.20, while Ryan McCloskey delivered a terrific performance in the Men’s 100M with a time of 10.58.
As Kendall Brown continues to shine at the collegiate level, her alma mater, Wildwood Middle High School, takes pride in her success and looks forward to cheering her on as she continues to make her mark in the world of track and field. Go Kendall!
