The summer of success continues for North Bay's Raine Bradley.
The Chippewa Secondary student won this weekend's U16 discus competition at the Ontario Summer Games in London.
Bradley threw a personal best of 51.65m good enough to capture the title.

It has been a memorable summer and late spring in the discus circle for the North Bay teen, who will be going into grade 10 this fall.
Back in the spring, Bradley won the 2024 Fergie Dowdall Trophy as the top athlete at the NDA Track and Field Championship in his first year and went on to break a long-standing NOSSA Novice discus record set by current Toronto Argonauts lineman and Algonquin alum Ryan Hunter when Bradley threw the disc 50.20 metres.
At OFSAA this June, he threw a personal best 51.22 meters on the province’s biggest stage to beat the nearest competitor by 5 meters at the OFSAA track and field championships in London. It was an impressive performance as four out of the six throws by Raine were far enough to win the gold medal.
Bradley is preparing to head to Calgary, Alberta to compete in the Legion Track and Field Nationals on August 9.
