Great run Jamaica College. They really wanted the record to it wasn't for that day. Handal Roban who ran the 2nd leg and split 1:48.1, there's something about that I just love. Maybe it's his swag, he just exudes confidence. Really looking forward to see how they can do further in their career especially Roban and Blake the captain who ran the anchor leg

This School [Jamaica College] is and has been one of the best High School in the Caribbean academically, it's the alma-Mator of great jamaican mind down the ages, Barrister extraordinaire Norman Manley, son Michael Manley, both PM OF Jamaica, recent opposition leader Peter Phillips, former PM Bruce Golding, could go on and on, the last runner who spoke at the Interview is a brilliant student in his academical accomplishment to the point where people wants him to truncate track and field and accommodate is scientific desire, I'm glad he will continue in T&F.

Was one of the best high schools in Jamaica. Not anymore. No longer the school of choice, not even on Hope Road.

@@kevinl6744 American schools do not excel in academics. Perhaps private schools but for most thats sadly not the case. Jamaican school systems are far superior than most school systems in the world.

[@geosync9742]

@@tomgibson2049 maybe, but most high school track teams don't travel far. I ran track and we competed at Penn. I'd say 90% of good HS track athletes never even heard of Penn relays because track in the US is probably the 10th popular sport, nor do high schools have the budget to send their teams across the massive country. Most high schools track coaches are bums off the street or football coaches forced to also coach track. So they don't know or care about big meets in other states. If all the top track athletes could compete at Penn there would be no contest.

[@wolsilita]

@@geosync9742 Really...Thank God opinions aren't facts. If as you say you have faster students consistently not a part of this meet it would translate to the Olympics or other international meets like the Diamond League, or ISTAF. This meet is exposure for the federation to spend money and groom the next Carl Lewis or Michal Johnson. Y'all need to chill, xenophobia on blacks ain't a good look. BTW JAs go all out on EVERY sport we play, maybe you missed FIFA qualifications, same energy with he rest of the world.

Beautifully👏👏👏said. The young speaker spoke well even under fatigue and stress. We must ensure that these young ladies and men speak as clearly as possible every time,it's important in this wide world. Quick notation, Don't answer these Americans or no other individual if you don't hear clearly what they ask and also make sure twice, that they understand the question that you're asking them. They told me yes on many occasions and when push comes to shoved they don't. This is very very important to learn about these Americans and the others living in this country. It it not what we expected America to be. You're genna find out quickly things here is way below par than what we do in Jamaica 🇯🇲 being a so-called first world country🙄.
