Meredith Kim, a fifth grader at Memorial Drive Elementary School, has watched the TV show American Ninja Warrior for years. When a ninja warrior gym opened near her home, Meredith tried it herself. At a competition, she took first place and was hooked. Last summer, her family went to Los Angeles so she could compete on American Ninja Warrior Junior. Meredith – whose birthday is the Fourth of July – chose “Merica the Firecracker Ninja” for her ninja warrior name. The American Ninja Warrior Juniors episode with Meredith will air March 27 on the Universal Kids network.
