SEFFNER - Brittany McGee admits she is an extremely competitive person, especially when it comes to anything pitting her against twin brother Dontae.
"I've never liked losing," McGee says with a smile. "I think it might have started with my brother. We compete in everything, like, I'll say, 'I can clean the shower better than you.'"
In track and field's pentathlon - long jump, high jump, shot put, 100-meter hurdles and 800-meter run - 13-year-old Brittany has few rivals. After just five years in the sport, she owns multiple state crowns, has competed in six national championships in her age group and is headed to her seventh U.S. finals later this month in Sacramento, Calif.
