Chicago’s Little Performs Big at World Track Championships
Track and field athlete Shamier Little was up against a wall. At last month’s World Track and Field Championships in Beijing, China, she drew the most inside lane for her race --- the lane most sprinters hate. And her time was the one of slowest to qualify for the 400 meter hurdle race final. But when the gun blasted, Little ran like a champion. By the time the race was over, she earned a place on the medal stand as a silver medalist.
