Issue number 34 of "Hot Summer Bods in Women's Sports & Fitness" features another trio of track athletes. These student athletes are striving for greatness and it's an honor to celebrate them.

Who knows, what is to come in the land of collegiate athletics for the 2020-21 season, due to the pandemic, but we're sure these ladies are going to find a way to succeed in life because they're built that way.

Tyra Gittens

At the 2019 NCAA outdoor national championship meet, Gittens placed second in the heptathlon finals. She was the favorite by many win the indoor pentathlon national title this season but the NCAA championship was cancelled due to the outbreak of COVID 19.

At the pause of the 2020 season Gittens ranked in the top 50 of the world among the heptathlon/pentathlon competitors.

Jada Wimberly

It's always cool when the hometown girl can perform at the local college. Jada Wimberly's hometown school is the sports giant known as Michigan. After two seasons away from action, she returned for the 2020 season. Wimberly earned first place high jump finishes in three of the five meets that she competed in this year.

Najah Whitfield

A senior, Najah Whitfield, had a fine moment during the 2019-2020 season when she won the 200-meter dash and the 60-meter hurdles at the JDL Early Bird Invitational.
