Top high schools on show at Reebok meet

In addition to Olympic 200m champion Veronica Campbell and Usain Bolt, three of Jamaica's top boys high school 4x400m relay teams will compete at the 2007 Reebok Grand Prix on Saturday, organisers announced earlier this week.

The International High School Boys 4x400m Relay and a High School Sprint Medley Relay are two new events.

These events will feature some of the best relay teams from the United States and Jamaica.

Representing Jamaica will be Calabar, Herbert Morrison and St. Jago, whose star Yohan Blake was named the Outstanding Relay Athlete at the recent Penn Relays.

Blake for relays

Blake, who recently set a Jamaican junior record for 100 meters at 10.11 seconds, will run the relays in New York.

Meanwhile, Bolt and Campbell will compete in their respective 200 metres.

Chris Williams, the 2001 World Championship silver medalist at 200m and 2000 Olympic bronze medalist in the 4x400m is also included.

Also expected to compete are 2006 Commonwealth Games medalists Sheri-Ann Brooks (gold, 100 meters); Omar Brown, (gold, 200 meters); Novlene Williams (bronze, 400m); and Jermaine Gonzales (bronze, 400m hurdles).

Rounding out the roster of individual Jamaican athletes are Dwight Thomas (100m); Peta-Gaye Dowdie (200m); Shereefa Lloyd and Sonita Sutherland (400m); Lacena Golding-Clarke and Delloreen Ennis-London (100m hurdles); Michael Blackwood (400m) and Maurice Wignall (110m hurdles).

The third-annual Reebok Grand Prix will begin at 5 p.m. June 2 at Icahn Stadium on Randall's Island, New York.
