SHOCK VIDEO: Vicious Rival Assaults High School Track Star During State Title Race in Virginia, Leaving Her With a Possible Skull Fracture

A horrifying scene unfolded on Friday during a track title race in Virginia with a jealous competitor viciously assaulting her star rival.

As The New York Post reported, Brookville High School junior Kaelen Tucker was taking part in the 4×200 meter relay at the VHSL Class 3 State Indoor Championships at Liberty University in Lynchburg after winning a silver medal in the girl’s 55m dash earlier in the meet when the shocking incident occurred.

Tucker, who was the second-leg runner, can be seen trying to move into lane one while battling second in the front as she rounds turn four.

A common reaction would be for an opponent to move to block her entry. But a vicious rival from IC Norcom High School instead slows down, pulls her arm back, and smashes the baton with full force across the back of Tucker’s head.

Tucker then staggers off track while holding her head and crumples to the ground as the horrified crowd gasps.

WATCH:

The New York Post reports Tucker’s mother and team trainers then raced to her side.

As a result of the incident, IC Norcom High School was disqualified from the race.

Tucker relived her horrifying ordeal in an interview with WSLS:

“When you go to the other side of the track, you have to cross into lane one, you have to merge in. As I was coming up on her, she kind of like made me get cut off a little bit, so I backed away,” she stated. “Then, as we got around the curve, she kept bumping me in my arm. Then finally we got off the curve, I like slowly started passing her and then that’s when she just hit me with the baton and I fell off the track.”

Tucker told WSLS that she immediately felt a headache after being assaulted. She was later diagnosed with a concussion and possible skull fracture.

“I could feel like a headache coming up, so I just sat out,” Tucker explained. “I recently went to the doctor, and they prescribed me with a concussion and a possible fractured skull.”

Tucker’s parents told WSLS they want an apology from the thug who hit their daughter and the coach of I.C. Norcom. They also contacted the Virginia High School League, who assured them that they were investigating the incident.
