Whiteman, Campbell sizzle at Barracuda

In the Elite Women category, Campbell ended atop the standings with a maximum points tally of 20 after her four races throughout the weekend. She was followed by Breakaway’s Dominique Lovell on 13 points. Campbell won the 1-Lap and 3-Lap events, with Lovell second in the 1-Lap and third in the 3-Lap. Cheyenne Awai claimed second place in the 3-lap.

In the Fitzroy Lyons Elite 1&2 Invitational 30-Laps, Jabari Whiteman of Heatwave managed to stop PSL’s bid for a clean sweep of the awards, finishing joint top with PSL’s Akil Campbell and Marloe Rodman on six points.

Akil, after his success on Saturday, needed to finish in the top three to wrap up the victory but he finished fourth, opening the door for his rivals. Whiteman needed no further invitation and won Sunday’s race to be tied on points with Campbell. And Rodman, who was second on both days, joined them atop the podium with his consistent form being rewarded.

PSL’s Romello Crawford was third on Saturday and Sunday and finished with four overall points. Whiteman, showing immaculate form on the final night of competition, copped the Robert Farrell Individual Pursuit in a time of two minutes, 54.62 seconds, once more ahead of PSL’s Rodman (3:00.30) and fellow club-mate Enrique De Cormarmon’s time in 3:06.97.

Rigtech Sonics’ Keron Bramble secured the gold medal position in the Ian Atherly Match Sprint event with Akil Campbell second, followed by Tireeff Smart of Breakaway in third.

Over the two-day competition, other undefeated athletes in their respective events included Sylese Christian of Phoenix in the Tinymite Women, Ashley Whiteman representing Rigtech Sonics in the Juvenile Women category, Justin Baptiste of Breakaway in the Juvenile Men, Phoenix’s Derell Petrovanie in the Tinymite Men and PSL’s Carlton Simmons in the Masters 40-49 category.
