#Champs2026: William Knibb’s Seymore makes amends with boys Class 1 200m win

KINGSTON, Jamaica — William Knibb Memorial’s Sanjay Seymore made up for missing out on a medal in the 100m on Wednesday after retaining his boys Class 1 200m title on Saturday’s final day of the ISSA/GraceKennedy Boys and Girls Athletics Championships at the National Stadium.

Running into a strong headwind of -4.2 metres per second, Seymore ran 21.14 seconds and just held off Jamaica College’s Makaelan Woods— 21.22 seconds and Kyle Bodden of Kingston College— 21.33 seconds.

Kingston College runners took the gold and silver in the Class 2 final, while Wolmer’s Boys athletes did the same in Class 3.

Jason Pitter completed a fine 200/400m double after he ran a smart 21.03 seconds (-1.8m/s) to take the Class 2 gold ahead of teammate Emmile Higgins with 21.52 seconds, with Mario Ross of Wolmer’s third with 21.56 seconds.

Wolmer’s Boys’ Ajani Lumley completed the 100m/200m double when he ran 22.20 seconds (-2.6m/s), beating his teammate Joshua McWilliams— 22.41 seconds, who won his second silver medal, and Jamaica College’s DeAndre Parker, who was third with 22.65 seconds.
