LEBRAUN TONEY HAS defied the odds.

And similar to namesake American basketball player Lebron James, the St Catherine’s student has scored his own slam dunk.

The 11-year-old was able to rebound and score the highest amongst the boys at his school during this year’s Barbados Secondary Schools’ Entrance Examination after an eye condition caused him to miss several weeks of class.
