All to battle for in final leg of College Classic Series on VG
The first race was won by Reuben J. A. Stoby and Emily O’Reilly in the men and women’s division respectively, while the second race was won by Emrol Amsterdam and Raw Skillz Track Club's Britney Peters.
Stoby, who has already won the College Classic Series on Tortola, has been invited to compete in a 10k race in Guadeloupe this weekend and is expected to return there having recently competed in the NACAC 10K in Petit Bourg.
This means that Amsterdam could end up lifting the champion’s trophy, unless Curwin Andrews, who had beaten Amsterdam to place second in the first race, decides to spoil the party.
As for the women, with both Peters and O’Reilly having a win under their belts, a keenly contested final race is anticipated-providing that both athletes show up for the race.
Race time on Saturday is 7am. Registration begins at 6:30am.
An awards ceremony will be held at the conclusion of the race.
