Bruce comes to Premier Athletics after spending last season in Clayton County Parks & Recreation. He comes highly regarded, and is already one of our top sprinters. Bruce has a great work ethic and already is a quiet leader on this team. He looks anxious to see where his talents can take him.

 

"I think we're lucky to have Bruce. He's very talented, and versatile. We believe he'll contend in the sprints across the board to qualify for Nationals. We have very difficult decisions with him because he's the anchor for our 4x100m relay, and could also be a strong 400m runner. If he progresses how I think he will, he'll be a force in the sprints for us. He's also a beast on the football field as well....from what I hear!", says Coach Charles.
