Holmwood's Keno Heavens. - Anthony Foster

NAME: Keno Heavens

D.O.B: 9.12.89

CLASS: One

SCHOOL: Holmwood

EVENTS: 800m, 1500m

PR: 2:06.36 (800m), 4:41.00 (1500m)

MAIN RIVALS AND WHY: Heavens has pointed to Manchester High's star athlete Natoya Goule and Mackola Joseph of Edwin Allen as her main rivals in the 800m. She also believes the same two athletes, along with Vere's Teneisha Davis, are the danger in the 1500m.

LAST YEAR'S PERFORMANCE: Heavens was third in the 800m in 2:12.00 and seventh in the 1500m.

EXPECTATION THIS YEAR: Lowering her personal best of 2:06.36 is the main aim at Champs, which she expects will bring a medal. Heavens will also be gunning for a medal in the 1500m, the more difficult of the two races.

NOTE: Entering her final year at Champs, Heavens, a former national junior representative, will want to go out on a high. Her lone success to date, the Class Two 800m title, which came in 2007, could be a major motivational factor. Having said that, winning will be far more difficult this year than in 2007, as Natoya Goule, the queen of this distance, opted out of the event. But, Goule or no Goule, Heavens has shown at various meets this season that only one thing is on her mind: winning, regardless of who turns up at the start.
