Britany van Lange, who was outstanding for her country at the last championships which were hosted in Barbados last year, continues to show great consistency and class and is certainly one of our Olympic prospects for the future.
Ronaldo Rodrigues has made a welcome return to the sport and has wasted little time in getting back into the grove.
All the athletes have made the B time for their various events and according to an official of GASA this should not be too much of a worry since the athletes will peak at the right time.
