Kambrie Wilkinson
School: Salem Hills High School
Grade: Senior
Sport: Cross Country and Track and Field
Kambrie Wilkinson has dedicated her high school athletics career to long-distance running. The senior from Salem Hills High School holds historic top-five record results in the school’s 1,600-meter and 3,200-meter events. But while Wilkinson’s performances are impressive, her coaches, teammates and opponents recognize her excellence off of the track as well.
“She is one of the first people on our team to go and meet the new teammate or bring the one that is by themselves into the group. She is positive and hard working,” said Salem Hills coach Jen Hughes. “There have been many surrounding schools that have noticed her sportsmanship and kindness to others.”
Wilkinson’s excellence continues in the classroom, having recently been selected as Academic All-State for Girls Cross Country. She will compete in the USHAA State Championship this fall.
