Another athlete has qualified for the Carifta Games, bringing Antigua and Barbuda’s tally thus far to eight.
Jevon Simon of the Ottos Comprehensive School and Edus Sports/Panthers Track Club dipped under the 49.80 Boys U17 400m Carifta standard set on Saturday night.
The young quarter miler fresh off his 100m silver medal on Friday night, returned a day later at the Interschools Athletics Championships to register a time of 49.63sec to secure qualification.
This will be Simon’s first showing at the Carifta Games scheduled for April 19-21 in Trinidad and Tobago.
I am sooo proud of these young people. Keep being productive. Good luck
Great job
Great effort, that makes young people motivated to do sports.
Well done kid. Good to see!
