Kingston College are pole position heading into today's final day of the ISSA GraceKennedy Boys and Girls' Champs, a position they have held from the opening day.

In fact, the North Street school seem poised to capture their 32nd title but things remain interestingly poised for todays' final day. Along with Orville Dixon's record-breaking exploits in the Class Three 1500m, the Class One 100m was one of the major highlights of an action-packed day three, as Kingston College (KC) continued to muscle their way to the title after 14 events. Jamaica College are second on 95, with Calabar 75, defending champions Wolmer's 47 and Munro 37, rounding out the top five going into today's curtain-closer.

In Class Three, the impressive Michael O'Hara (Calabar) was too quick for his rivals, winning the 100m in 11.15 ahead of Rashaad Saunderson (KC),11.18, and Raheem Chambers (St Jago) 11.20.

Calabar's Orville Dixon brought the house down with an outstanding record-breaking run in the Class Three boys' 1500m, but despite Calabar winning two of the three middle-distance finals, KC still outscored their rivals in the event.

Not only did Dixon shatter Shavanes Robinson's (Titchfield) 4:25.67 mark that was established last year; his blistering 4:17.27 was simply too hot for the defending champion, who could only manage third place with 4:26.77. Edwin Allen's Ryan Holmes was second with 4:26.75.

Alec-Verne Longmore (JC) took advantage of the absence of Calabar's Christopher Brown to win the Class Two boys' shot put with a best mark of 15.45m, with Edwin Allen's Demar Gayle, 14.38m and Lennon's Orega Welch, who produced a 14.19m distance with his last throw, securing the other medal.

Munro's Emmanuel Onyia, 16.22m, qualified for today's final with the best distance in the Class One boys' shot put preliminary round, with JC's Shaquille Lewis 15.31m and national discus record holder Travis Smikle (Calabar) 14.81m, also safely through to the medal round.

Calabar picked up key points in the Class Three boys' long jump, Javaughn Fowler topping the field with a 6.47m distance. Kevon Nichols (STETHS) was second with a mark of 6.37m, while Jaheel Hyde (Wolmer's) finished third with 6.26m.

The Red Hill Road-based boys were at it again in the Class Two 1500m; Jorel Belfante leading them to their second triumph in the event. Belfante won in 4:10.56 ahead of Dominic Powell (KC), 4:13.53, and Rajay Hamilton (Lennon), 4:13.96. KC's second runner, Kadeem Willis, finished fourth, ensuring that his school outscored Calabar in the event.

Michael Campbell (Calabar), 51.60, and Jordan James (Wolmer's), 52.50, are on course for their Class Three 400m collision, as both advanced to the finals with the first- and third-fastest times, respectively, from yesterday's semi-final action. JC's Devaughn Baker was the second-fastest with a 51.80 clocking in his semi-final.

In Class Two, favourite and defending champion Lennox Williams (Manchester), who has gone below 49 seconds already this year, was the fastest over the line in yesterday's semi-final with a 49.01 clocking, with Calabar's Javon Francis, 49.18, posting the next best time. Okeen Williams (STETHS), who is expected to challenge for a medal, registered the third-fastest time going into today's final, stopping the clock at 49.46, a season's best.

Seaforth's Javere Bell, a finalist at the IAAF World Youth Championships in 2009, will have to do better than his 48.33-second showing in the semi-finals, if he is to honour his tag as favourite coming into the championships.
