Despite several top athletes not participating at the Digicel Anthrick Corporate Area Development Meet and the presence of rain, there were still some notable performances at the National Stadium yesterday.

With the Ben Francis Meet set for Saturday, plus the prestigious Gibson McCook Relays the Saturday after, several schools rested their top athletes for this midweek event.
