Antigua-Barbuda was the leading Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) territory at the XXXIV CARIFTA Junior Track & Field Championships, at the Dwight Yorke Stadium in Bacolet, Tobago. Jamaica topped the table with 59 medals, the home team was second on a Trinidad & Tobago record 36 (13-14-9) medals, and Antigua-Barbuda finished with a total of four medals, including three gold and one bronze. Daniel Bailey led the northern Caribbean territory. The 2004 World Junior Championships finalist had already won the under-20 men's 100m dash in Tobago. Monday, he added the 200m title. Bailey came into the Games with a mission, and he completed it with victory in the U-20 men's 200m dash. The Antiguan ran 21.36 seconds to hold off Jamaica's Mekel Downer (21.49) and T&T's Marcus Duncan (21.64). Grenada's Sherry Fletcher had earlier taken silver in the U-20 women's 100m. Whilst T&T's (and, more specifically, Tobago's) Kelly Ann Baptiste (23.25) did the 100-200 double, beating Jamaica's World Youth Champion, Anneisha McLaughlin (23.28) by a narrow margin, Fletcher picked up a second medal, finishing third in 24.03 to command bronze for the Spice Isle. In the U-17 women's half-lap race, Jamaica's Latoya King (23.68) and T&T's Britney St Louis (23.98) denied Antigua-Barbuda's Anika Jno- Baptiste (24.07) what would have been a second gold medal. U-20 men's 1500m champion Andrae Drummonds dominated the men's open 5000m run. The Jamaican ran 16:08.27, well ahead of the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States duo of St Lucia's Shawn Adams (16:28.36) and St Vincent & the Grenadines' Junior Ashton (16:38.52). In the field, Martinique ruled the U-17 women's Triple Jump. Keisha Willix got a just-legal tailwind of 1.9 m/s to record her best effort of 12.29m, whilst Myriam Lixfe (12.25m) had a tailwind of 2.1 m/s, just over the allowable limit. 13-year-old British Virgin Islander Chantel Malone (11.09m) was third, her second jumping medal of the Games, after bronze in the U-17 women's Long Jump. The OECS ended with 23 medals, including four gold. The bulk of the medals went to Grenada, despite that country's team being at less than full strength after having sustained hurricane damage in late 2004. Grenadian athletes took eight (1-3-4) of the medals captured by the OECS. Antigua-Barbuda's four were followed by three (0-2-1) for St Lucia. OECS Medal Tally - CARIFTA 2005 D.
