For those of you that weren’t around for our initial introduction to Elijah, Smith went from having not competing in High School athletics to self teaching himself to throw the shot put and discus for Track and Field Head Coach Shawn Montgomery.

Smith advanced all the way to the State Track meet over at Liberty University. Smith would go on to compete in the Nike national meet after the school year.

We appreciate Mrs.Smith staying in touch and given us such a positive update on her Son !

Here is a photo πŸ“· of Elijah as well as fellow Track star, Corrie Delp, being honored at Cavalier Park prior to their trip to Lynchburg.
