Palmer Trinity School (PTS) has announced that senior Maria Camposano Paiz was selected recently to compete as part of the Guatemalan U18 Track and Field National Team in Guatemala City, June 2-5, in the Central American Championships U18 U20 (Campeonato Centroamericano de Atletismo U18 U20 2023). Camposano Paiz placed first and broke the Guatemalan Team record in the 100-meter hurdles in the under 18 division.
“I got involved with the Guatemalan team because my parents are from Guatemala, and I have dual citizenship. I was honored to represent Guatemala as part of their U18 national team,” Camposano Paiz said.
Camposano Paiz competed in her first full track and field season with Palmer Trinity in the ninth grade and has trained and competed with PTS and in a club team for the past three years.
“PTS has played a very important role in my athletic career. Coach Tammy King was the reason I started running,” Camposano Paiz added. “She has trained and helped me achieve everything I have done. I also appreciate the other coaches outside of school who have played a role in me competing to the best of my ability.”
