Tim Hornsby crossed the finish line one quarter of a second before his competitor in the senior men's kayak 200m race.
Lakeside High School graduate and 2012 Olympic kayaker Tim Hornsby maintained his top spot in the men's 200m kayak race standings this weekend, securing him a competition spot on the U.S. team this year.
From a statement from the national team on the event held over the weekend in Oklahoma City:
London 2012 Olympian Tim Hornsby (Atlanta, Ga.) maintained his spot atop the senior men's kayak 200m standings by crossing the line one quarter of a second before Ryan Dolan (Kailua, Hawaii). Chris Miller of Lanier Canoe and Kayak Club finished third in that distance, but first in the 1000m Final. Miller teamed up with Stanton Collins (Gainesville, Ga.) to claim both the K2 200m and 1000m races.
