Luke Campbell, Frederick County Olympian, Brunswick Graduate

Still basking in the glow of his life-changing opportunity to compete in the Olympic games, Brunswick High School graduate Luke Campbell is the guest this week on The Final Score podcast.

Campbell shares his experience competing in the Tokyo Olympics last August for Germany's track and field team with host Greg Swatek. What were his emotions? How did his friends and family react? How annoying were all of the COVID-19 protocols? And how frustrating was it that fans could not attend? How has his life changed since the experience? And how does he typically feel after he runs his race, the 400-meter hurdles, which is one of the most grueling on the track?

Campbell explains how and why he is able to compete for Germany despite growing up here in Frederick County, and he talks about the meets he is training for now, including the world championships this July in Eugene, Oregon.

Prior to that, FNP sports writer John Cannon drops in to chat about the Frederick County sports scene with Greg. The guys talk about the big high school basketball matchups of the last week and the big ones on tap for later this week.
