Chantoba Bright added another CARIFTA Games long jump gold medal to her collection yesterday when the 2018 Flow CARIFTA Games got off to a flying start here in The Bahamas.
Bright, who leapt to gold last year in the U-18 category, graduated to the U-20 ranks seamlessly and dominated the premier female leapers of the Region.
Bright who will celebrate her 18th birthday on Wednesday flew through the air as high as a kite then disturbed the sand with a best jump of 5.95m, good enough to bag Guyana’s first gold medal of the 47th edition of the prestigious games which concludes tomorrow at the Thomas A. Robinson National Stadium.
