Fenton and Daley qualify for Carifta 100m
Track and field standout Tyra Fenton has become the latest athlete from Antigua and Barbuda to qualify for the 2025 Carifta Games in the 100m event.
Competing for St. Anthony’s Secondary School (SASS) at the Cool and Smooth Interschool Track and Field Championships in the Under-17 girls’ 100m, Fenton not only qualified for the Easter weekend games in Trinidad and Tobago but also won the race.
She had previously qualified for the 200m a few weeks ago. Additionally, she claimed victory in the Under-17 girls’ 400m race, earning her a total of two gold medals.
Kasiya Daley from the Princess Margaret School (PMS) also qualified for the 100m event.
Daley had already secured a spot in the boys’ Under-20 200m but solidified his qualification in the 100m by winning gold on Friday. He will now compete in the regional event scheduled for April 19-21.
Other athletes who have qualified thus far include Dwanye Fleming, Ranique Richards (PMS), Zonique Charles (SNRA), Geolyna Dowdye (PMS), and Lanica Locker.
