The Guyana track and field contingent to the Inter-Guiana Games (IGG) dominated the athletics competition and won that segment outright as the games came to a close yesterday evening in Paramaribo, Suriname.
However, for all the hardware earned on the track and in the pits, Team Guyana had to settle for being second overall while the host nation did enough across all the disciplines to reign as the overall champions, with French Guiana finishing third.
While Guyana won the athletics segment, Suriname finished second and French Guiana third. Over in basketball, the French were dominant, claiming both male and female competitions, while Suriname was second and Guyana was third.
