President College retains stranglehold of ExxonMobil Guyana Regional Inter Schools Kayaking Competition

President’s College returned with the heart and of a champion to retain the ExxonMobil Guyana Regional Schools Kayaking championship.

The action was the ExxonMobil Guyana Regional Schools Kayaking championship which was once again organised by the Elite Kayaking and Nature Tours led by Dr. Deon Anderson, and held last Friday on the waters of the Demerara River, alongside the Watooka Guest House’s Landing where eleven schools tried unsuccessfully to unseat the defending champions President’s College.

For starters, President’s College began ominously when the pair of Shane Johnson and Chelsea Lyte romped home winners in the Under14 Mixed short distance race.

They would be featured in other races won by the PC side where Shane Johnson and Nalini LaRose would win the Under16 Mixed short distance event and Lyte took first in the Under16 Female Singles race.

New Silvercity Secondary for their 5 points had wins in the Male Long distance race with Prince Alexander, Zidane John and Keifer Young being the kayakers as Nadia Williams, Princess Fletchman and Andrella France the combination which won the Female long distance race, while Keifer Young and Andrella France would take honours in the Open Mixed short distance race.

Kwakwani Secondary would have a winner in the Open female singles race when Chelsea Rodney took first position and they tallied 52 points.

Leonora Secondary then stepped into fourth position, as Colin Williams won the Male Open Single race, and they accumulated 52 points. They finished ahead of Linden Foundation Secondary and ended in fifth spot even though Chelsea Rodney won the Open female Singles race.

The other schools were Mackenzie High on 30 points, Hururu Secondary on 27, Harmony Secondary 21, Christianburg Wismar Secondary 11, Wisburg Secondary two and Queens College still to trouble the scores.
