Muna Gets Her Day
-
Description
-
Olympic sprinter Muna Lee was once a student at Central High School in Kansas City, Missouri. She recently returned to visit the school. Mayor Mark Funkhouser proclaimed Sept. 16 as "Muna Lee Day" in the city. "Lee didn't get to bring an Olympic medal back from the Beijing Games, and that was a disappointment for her. She was the 100-meter champion and the 200 runner-up at the U.S. Olympic trials, but finished fifth and fourth, respectively, in those events in China." Lee currently lives and trains in Texas.
