Following on from our first feature we have joint holder of the 2008 Most Improved Athlete of the Year Award, Tashane "Champs" Bromfield.Name: Tashane O. Bromfield
DOB: August 1, 1992
Born: Manchester, JA
Form: Fifth Form
House: Dickenson
Height: 6' 0"
Weight: 180lbs
Champs truly came to prominence in the 07-08 season. He has been a member of the MCTF Squad for the last four seasons but never started in a championship meet until this year. Champs has been among the most consistent student-athletes at training over the last four years. Not only was he always present but worked very hard and was disciplined throughout.
All his work and patience came to fruition during the 2008 STETHS Invitational when he ran 11.1 in the Class II 100m, almost a full second faster than his personal best. Champs went on to run 11.19 in the prelims at Boys Champs and made it to the semis where he ran 11.51. Undaunted by not making the final he came back to run a monster leg in the Class II 4x100m finals.
Champs' story is one of patience, focus and determination. He is the full embodiment of the success that can come through hard work and perseverance through adversity. His aim is to make a final at Boy's Champs 2009. I wouldn't bet against him.
