Orange are back in control of the pool.

Youth was being served yesterday, as juniors Kyla Beckles and Makayla Clarke turned in powerful performances in the youngest age group to spearhead Orange’s title-winning performance at Queen’s College swimming sports.

The dynamic duo actually accounted for 100 points between them in the 12-and-under division at the Aquatic Centre, leading their house to the overall crown as well as the girls’ title in very overcast conditions.

Orange finished with an overall tally of 398 points – more than 100 better than their nearest rivals Blue, who placed second with 285.

They had an even wider margin of victory in the girls’ championship, where Orange amassed 288 points to blow Yellow out of the water after the defending champs finished with 162.

Led by joint victor ludorum Jacob Coles and CARIFTA triathlete Christopher Pollard, Red took home the boys’ title with 234 points to relegate Blue (169) and Orange to second and third respectively.
