Blind high school pole vaulter Charlotte Brown wins bronze medal at Texas state championships
AUSTIN, Texas – For three years, Charlotte Brown has been chasing a medal by trying to jump over a bar she couldn't see.
The senior pole vaulter cleared that bar Saturday, earning a third-place finish at the Texas state high school championships. And proudly joining her on the podium as the bronze medal was draped around her neck — her service dog Vador.
