On track in NACAC! JR. Representatives “Jaminate” championship!

The men’s u23 100m was claimed by Purdue and former Jamaica College standout Waseem Williams who bounced back from his disappointing showing at national championships to claim gold in a time of 10.00 seconds. Mario Burke of Barbados finished in 3rd with 10.01 seconds, while Jamaica’s other representative, former St. Jago and class 2 100m record holder Raheem Chambers finished in 4th with 10.13 seconds.
