One of Champions Sports Performance's first athletes, Daniel McArthur, was a middle school kid living in Mooresville, NC ready to become faster & stronger. Being a taller and bigger kid, Daniel and his parents knew he needed to work on his overall movement, so they enrolled him in Champions. Daniel went on to high school and competed in four different sports (football, lacrosse, track and field, and wrestling). He won the Indoor state champion in the shot put and was invited to the Indoor New Balance Nationals. Adding to the list of accomplishments, he was a 3-Time Regional Champion and 2-time All-Conference in track and field.
