Today, the Girl competed in AAU Nationals in high jump for the first time in her life, but it’s the fourth or fifth time she’s competed in AAU Nationals in general. It’s just that before today, it had always been in volleyball.
Unlike volleyball, though, these nationals did not take place a day’s drive away. Instead, they were a mere three hours away.
It was also by far the biggest track meet she’s ever participated in: three high jump mats with over 50 girls participating.
How did she do? She’d say “Meh” if you asked her that question.
But she placed twelfth out of fifty-one girls.
And of course, no matter how it ended, we’re all proud of her and her accomplishments this year.
