The Lester Vaughan School reigned supreme on home soil again to capture the inaugural Rivaldo Leacock Athletics Championship title yesterday.

Continuing from a slender six-point lead at the start of the final day, the former Barbados Secondary School’s Athletics Championship (BSSAC) winners earned 488 points, holding off stiff competition from The Alleyne School (444) to be crowned champions at the school’s ground.

Coleridge & Parry totalled 438 points to claim third position, while St George Secondary School were fourth with 334 points.

The athletes from Cane Garden, St Thomas, were propelled to victory by an overall team effort, with stellar performances from 14-year-old Davina Gaskin and senior boy Savion Hoyte.  (AGB)
