“For four years, Cameron Judkins has led by example, putting in the work when no one is watching and pushing not only himself, but everyone around him to be better,” his coach - Toni Goetten - said in a statement about his career.
“This is an athlete who runs the 200 meters and then turns around and runs the 4x400 relay the very next race because he knows his team needs him. I have been fortunate to coach him over the past two years, and I’m excited to see what he accomplishes the rest of this season and as he continues his career at the collegiate level.”
