Barbados served up some home cooking. And Niel Skinner had a feast.

The young Bajan athlete certainly delivered on the big stage, accounting for one of the hosts’ three victories during yesterday’s extremely successful opening session of the CARIFTA Triathlon Championships.

Taking advantage of ideal overcast conditions and rampant crowd support, Skinner led home a huge Bajan charge to capture the 13-15 boys’ aquathlon in front of the Aquatic Centre. (BARBADOS NATION)
