It must be a foregone conclusion that the purples have it. I see no point predictions from the afficianados . Btw, Thianna Lee terrelong looked supreme in the heats today. Looking forward to the next few days

KC - Boys
Edwin Allen - Girls (the Hydel coach conceded pre Champs). Perhaps the beginning of Hydel's let down as the double coaching duties will continue to tell on Hydel given that Calabar is intent on winning Champs.

Top 5 athletes yesterday (in order):
1. Terrelonge - Class2 girls 100m
2. Douglas - Class 2 girls 400m. Their clash at 200m will be the race of the meet.
3. Smythe - Class 2 boys 100m
4. Rose - Class 1 boys 400m
5. Scott - Class 4 girls 100m

The amount of time/money that KC/JC spend to import African distance runners; it is worth it? They say:

It helps the distance program - well, distance records predate their arrival. Secondly, they are not clearly better (some would argue not marginally better) than our home-based runners.

Campbell. I think the first name is Andorra? She is going to give Natrece east a run for her money

Here's what I learned - this is about prestige more than anything else - the sports titles bring in the money from alumni who fund labs complete with technology, gear, infrastructure, networks at home and abroad and sporting fields, etc.

It is about way more than the medals.

One on the long jumpers probably broke his leg. I think the sand might have been too hard after the rain. It did not give. Unfortunate . They are breaking the sand up now.

Campbell got left in the blocks. Natrece East takes the class 3 100. I like this adora Campbell young lady from Jago

The announcer mentioned the Jc decathlete from Trinidad. Dorian Charles or something. Geesh
