MONTEGO BAY, St James — St Elizabeth Technical High School’s (STETHS) Junelle Bromfield is eyeing three individual gold medals at next month’s ISSA Girls’ Athletics Championships, and it would take a brave or foolish person to bet against her achieving that.

So far this season Bromfield has firmly established herself as one of the top junior athletes in the island and had reeled off a series of impressive times in all her events.

At last week’s Digicel/County of Cornwall Athletics Association’s Western Championships, she won all three events, setting records in the Class One 400m and 800m events and ran away with the 1,500m, which she won on a canter.

Last year she won all three in Class Two as well and added gold in the 800m at Champs, gold in the 400m hurdles and 800m at the Carifta Games, as well as the 4x400m relays and was second in the 400m hurdles at the Penn Relays, where she won her section comfortably, but her time was beaten by another runner in a later race.

Bromfield is building on a brilliant end to last season, in which she won the 400m/400m hurdles double at the Commonwealth Youth Games in Samoa, atoning for what she said was a disappointing IAAF World Youth Championships.

In a recent interview at the launch of the Milo Western Relays in Montego Bay, Bromfield told the Jamaica Observer, “My target this season is a medal at the World Juniors; last year’s biggest disappointment was at World Youths where I only made the final (in the 400m hurdles), but this year I want to do more than that, I want to win a medal.”

At Champs, the 2015 Courtney Walsh Award for Excellence in sports and academics winner said a fourth-straight gold medal in the 800m was her aim.

On Saturday she ran virtually by herself to win the two-lap race in 2 minutes 07.37 seconds before returning to win the 400m in 52.43 seconds.

A few days earlier she had won the 1,500m in 5 minutes 14.07 seconds.

Bromfield said she had a decision to take at the end of the season, whether to return to STETHS or move on. “This is not my final year. I have one more year to go, but based on what happens this season I will decide whether I will stay at STETHS or move on.”

No doubt her competitors will be glad to see her go so they can have a chance of winning.
