In the most hotly contested race of the day, Brooks Beast, Nia Akins fought down the final straight of the 600m to push past Chanelle Price and Sadi Henderson. Nia is not just a star on the rise, she’s arrived. ————————————————————— On the broadcast, announcer Jeff Merrill mispronounced Nia’s name and for that he is truly sorry. Everyone in the track world should know Nia’s name and we look forward to having the privilege of calling more of her electric races. Thank you for delivering a great one, Nia! Please call me Jeff Mertil. 📷: howlaophotography and tempojournal #TheBiggerFriendly #Tracklandia
