The past several years I usually cringe when the individual (s) is (are) announced during the NASCAR pre-race festivities to "perform" the National Anthem.
What a pleasant surprise when ESPN telecast this past Friday night's Nationwide race at Richmond to hear little 11 year old Sophia Nadder, a student at Robious Middle School in Midlothian, Virginia sing our National Anthem straight from the heart with none of the usual embellishment, screaming or histrionics.
Nice job for a little school girl in front of a race audience and a national television audience. Hats off to this little Miss.
