Really happy for Dana Baker, who MADE HISTORY today, being first male or female from USA, to medal in Javelin in U20! Here’s how she replied to the media:

Dana Baker, women’s javelin bronze medalist on being first Team USATF U20 Javelin medalist: “It’s amazing! Hopefully I’m the first of many. It’s a great feeling, kind of surreal. It hasn’t really set in yet.”
