Team USA has shown its dominance in track and field at the summer games in Paris, racking up the medal count with both big and breakout names including Noah Lyles, Tara Davis-Woodhall, Cole Hocker, and Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone who dashed her own record to win gold in the women’s 400-meter hurdles Thursday.
On Friday, American athletes Grant Holloway and Daniel Roberts shared the medal platform after clinching gold and silver, respectively, in the 110-meter hurdles.
Roberts earned silver with a narrow second-place finish by outleaning Jamaica’s Rasheed Broadbell, winning by .003 of a second.
Before the competition, Roberts told CBN News he was ready to compete and use his talent as a platform to promote his Christian faith.
“Everything outside of my faith is really what fits in,” he said, explaining how it lays the foundation for his mindset. “When that is right, I know that I can go out there and give {God} my all, because at the end of the day, we’re all here to worship God in our own special way. And this is just a different way that I use my abilities and my gifts to bring glory to him.”
