This week's National Girls Performer Of The Week did it all at the Bullis Bulldog Invitational last weekend.
Myla Greene, the Tennessee recruit, set two new meet records and brought home three gold individual medals for her efforts in the 100mH, 300mH and 400mH.
In the short hurdles, she crossed the finish line nine-hundredths of a second off her personal best of 13.48 which she set earlier this season. The new meet record stands at 13.57 with Greene's name next to it. In the 300mH, she clocked a US No. 2 performance with a 40.96.
When it came to the 400mH, Greene debuted her season with a lifetime best and meet record of 58.17. This performance equals the second-fastest time in the nation so far this year.
During the week, the Bulldog had 61-percent of the votes to earn this week's honor.
From now until the end of the outdoor track season, winners will be awarded National Athlete Of The Week backpacks courtesy of TrackBarn. If selected as National Girls Performer Of The Week, please send mailing addresses to olivia.ekpone@flosports.tv to receive your bag.
It's time to vote for this week's NPOTW. The poll will end on Friday and winners will be announced the following Monday.
