Suharevskis Niks-Davis
Senior, Key West
Track & Field
“He leads by example. Whether it’s in the weight room or on the track, he is constantly trying to improve himself.” – Dave Perkins, Key West track coach
Already a standout jumper and hurdler, Suharevskis Niks-Davis turned his talents to the pole vault in 2022, resulting in an eighth-place medal at the state championships in the event his sophomore year. As a junior, he brought home the silver, and though his best vault at the FHSAA 2A Track & Field State Championships bettered last year’s leap, the senior vaulter brought home the bronze and an amazing third medal in as many years. The well-decorated athlete is described by his coach as a “workaholic.” Niks-Davis refuses to be anything but his absolute best, working overtime in the weight room, at the track and in his study of an event which requires as much mental preparation as it does physical. For his willingness to lead by example and defiance in the realm of gravity, Key West’s Suharveskis Niks-Davis is the Keys Weekly Athlete of the Week.
