Antigua and Barbuda’s Carifta team continues to grow as another athlete has qualified for the regional games set for the Bahamas.
Kasiya Daley became the fifth member of the national team on Wednesday night after running a time of 10.79secs in the boy’s under-17 100m at the Princess Margaret School (PMS) Sports Day at YASCO.
The meet dubbed “Homecoming 2023, the PMS Dynasty”, was sanctioned by the Antigua and Barbuda Athletics Association (ABAA), giving athletes the opportunity to qualify for the April 8-10 event.
He is the second male qualifier joining Craig Prendergast who will run in the 400m.
The other qualifiers are LaNica Locker in the 200m, Naomi McDonald in shot put and Geolyna Dowdy in the 200m.
Dowdy will run in the 100m as well, as she qualified for the event during the PMS meet on Wednesday after she ran 11.77secs in the girls under-20 100m.
Daley and Dowdy were the lone qualifiers coming out of the PMS meet.
