Ain't life starry"?

Tiny Andre ( but not he mout') Harper finally has a record in his name at the Lester Vaughan School in the U.20 Boys 100m (10.66). It was sorta impressive ( yeah right ) but the little master of deception got the job done. Way to go Harps.
HOWEVER it was the Senior Boys high jump that the man from wherever in St.George bemused the entire Stadium with a leap of 1.75. Scaling has it's advantages,right guy?
Guess what ? Almost (if not all) the members of Rising Stars won a division or broke a record.
Read on :

Jamacy Drayton - Victrix Ludorum
Andre Harper - Victor Ludorum ( U THINK ?)
1 'K' - Kierre - 100m Hurdles Senior - 14.25 secs
2 'K' - Kenrisha - 100m U.17 Girls - 12.00 secs
Rhys Phillips - 80mH U.15 Boys - 12.37 secs
BIG Brandon Inniss ( he had 3) - Shot Putt -12.80m,Discus - 37.38m,Javelin - 34.28m. ALL RECORDS.
Good going you guys/gals.
LIFE SURE IS SWEET WHEN THE STARS CAN SHINE ALL THE TIME

XCATLY 1 day lata ................................
A tinier unassuming lad reinforced that good things come in small packages ( in this case frame). Jerrad Mason was head and shoulders ( DUH !!!) above his opponents winning the 100m,200m and piercing the 400m in a record (59.???). Where ? Harrison College Inter-House Sports. He ultimately ran ( pun intended) with the U.13 Boys Division.
Also at that meet towering Tyrell broke the U.17 Boys 100m hurdles record. Time ? Can't help ya.

Shakeup in the camp

After what he deemed to be "under-performances" by the senior athletes at the recent Relay Fair, the Head Coach of the RSTFC has literally thrown a massive dose of 'thunderdust' in the camp.
Who are the former national athletes to be shaken up by this dust ?
Will we get better performances from this decision ?
According to the Coach," from here on in people gotta earn their pick".
Funny ain't it ?

They do,they really do shine at day

Whoever said that stars only shine at night certainly wasn't at the National Stadium yesterday ( Saturday 10th February 2007 ) at the annual Barbados Relay Fair.
The athletes from this club lit up the track leaving spectators gasping,jumping and wanting more.
The K's ( Kendra,Kenrishsa and Kierre),the D's ( Damian M and E and Dario) as well as Ramon,Shadir,Frenchie,Harper,Ronnie,Ricardo T,Everton,Tanisha and Rommell were electrifying. Throw in a "weasel" (Jamal) and the galaxy was ablaze with stars.
Several club members also contributed to good performances for their schools. Halana,Shaq,Dwayne and Christian ( Lodge), Shakir ( QC) and terrific Tyrell (HC) who in an amazing third leg for Harrison College put his team in a commanding position to win the U.17 Boys 4x400m relay.
Well done all y'all !!!

Ooops!! We did it again !!

A graceful "star" shone all over the parish of St.John on Friday ( 9th Febraury 2007 ) at the grounds of the Lodge school.
Halana Gittens competing in the Division Four and our newest emerging talent convincingly electrified spectators in winning the 100,200,400 and 800m before winning the Junior Victrix Ludorum title at the 2007 Inter-house Sports.
Hail Princess Halana!!
At the same meet,Shaquille Hollingsworth also in that division was victorious in the 100,200 and 400m. Way to go Shaq!

Tristan meanwhile won the Girls' U.11 division. No points for her as yet.
Mention must be made of Dario S ( yeah,another Dario) who won the Boys' U.13 800m.
And so the stars continue to shine.

Shining lights !!!

The glow of the youngsters in the Rising Stars Track and Field Club shone all over the National Stadium on Saturday (February 3rd) as BC Trac's Young Olympians meet was held. The sixteen member team was brilliant as well as bright.
Competing like the stars that they truly are the junior athletes U-11 through U-17 twinkled and glowed from start to finish.
Dazzling performances came from Jerrad (record -U.13 Boys 400m 59.98) and emerging superSTAR,Kenrisha ( record - U.17 Girls 300m Hurdles,46.52).Other notables were burly Brandon, titillating Tristan,talented Tyrell and the U.15 Boys 4x100m relay team.
It was another day where the stars really shone and spectators were "blinded".

One so far !!

A twinkle shone brightly at the Ellerslie School's annual Inter-house athletic meet yesterday when little Deondray Richards won the Boys U-13 division by an amazing 36points.
His most astounding run however was in the 400m relay and his house trailing by almost 20meters. Taking the baton in second place, Deondray lit up(literally) the Stadium by catching the race leader at the finish line and with arms outstretched and mouth just as wide (in glee), reminded pundits of Donovan Bailey's win in his 100m Olympic victory.
Way to go, Deondray.
