Kamille’s dream comes true

SACRIFICE has paid off for Queen’s College’s hardworking athlete Kamille Gaskin-Griffith.

The 17-year-old upper sixth student has secured a four-year scholarship at Indiana State University in the United States. 

“My scholarship is a symbol of hard work. Growing up as an athlete in Barbados, the goal was always to earn a track and field scholarship in addition to using track to further my education,” she told MID-WEEK SPORT.
