Fraser, Stewart win 100, 200m events at Early Season Classic

The start of the women’s 800m final.

Despite the threat of the pandemic, COVID-19, the Athletic Association of Guyana (AAG) was able to successfully stage its ‘Early Season Classic’ at the National Track and Field Centre during the weekend.

While there were a sprinkling of spectators, most of the athletes turned up to match strides during the two-day fixture which attracted several overseas based athletes.

Usual suspects Davin Fraser (100m) and Akeem Stewart (200m) won the blue riband events while national javelin record holder, Leslain Baird, Emmanuel Archibald, Joshua Tappin and Isaiah Lewis made hay in the sunshine in the field events.
