The rising senior cleared 6’10.75″ (2.10 meters) to win the Under-18 boys’ high jump, giving him his 11th victory in an invitational or championship this season. His jump was also the highest of the competition, including the Under-20 age group.

This weekend he will compete in Bahamian National Championships.
