Queen for a day: Fountain- Fort Carson’s Alexa Queen nabs state title

Alexa Queen took home the gold medal in the 5A, 300 meter hurdles at the state track and field championships.

Queen secured a personal record of 41.66, which is good for the second fastest time in state history.

Queen's reaction was fairly tempered given the accomplishment.
