Gibson Relays 2009
Calabar High lived up to expectations when they destroyed their rivals to post a record 39.95 in the Class One 4×100m to become the first school team to go below 40.00 seconds at the Gibson Relays. They ended the event almost a second ahead of St Jago High (40.92). St Jago set the previous mark, 40.07, in 2007. Kingston College, St George’s College, and Wolmer’s Boys were also in record-breaking moods at the meet, dubbed the Caribbean’s most prestigious relay carnival.
KC won the Class Four 4×100m in 45.88, beating the 46.03 they set in 2007. St George’s romped to victory in the Class Three 4×200m in 1:31.52, going under the 1:31.55 set by KC in 2006. Wolmer’s clocked 1:28.11 in the Class Two 4×200m to smash the 1:28.43 set by KC in 2005. Other relay record breakers were Jamtech Masters, 44.77, in the 4×100m; Naggo Head, 52.39 in the 4×100m for Primary Under-12 girls; Hydel, 49.84, for Prep School Boys Under-12 and Lannaman’s 31.88 for Under-10 Prep.
