PHILADELPHIA, Pennsylvania:
Edwin Allen High School turned in a magnificent display to record double victories while capturing Championship of Americas titles at the Penn Relays at the University of Pennsylvania, Franklin Field, yesterday.
The quartet of Nikita Tracey, Amoy Blake, Shashawna French and Ristananna Tracey clocked 3:41.25 to lead their team to victory in the girls’ 4×400 metres relay.
Holmwood (3:41.72) and Manchester High 3:41.76 finished second and third, respectively, while Vere Technical, the other Jamaican team in the final, was disqualified.
Edwin Allen was aided by a brilliant anchor led from Ristannana Tracey, who found extra gear in the last 60 metres to go by leader Petra Fantry of Holmwood and Natoya Goule of Manchester.

Whoever said it first got it right: “Life is too short for drama and
petty things, so kiss slowly, laugh insanely, love truly and forgive
quickly.” What a wise and wonderful way to live – but not as easy as
it seems.

Personally, I’m all for lingering kisses, raucous laughter, and true
love. I can’t wait. But the idea of forgiving quickly is a tough one.
It certainly belongs on the list; it’s just that it doesn’t come
easily. How I enjoy my righteous indignation. Forgiving can be like
drinking bitter medicine; I have to force myself to swallow … and even
that in small doses.
