Jereem “The Dream” Richards was on fire at the Hasely Crawford Stadium, scorching the track in 19.83 seconds, to claim the Men’s 200m title in the NGC/NAAATT National Open Championships.
The heavy rains and a wet track could not put a damper on an entertaining show as Richards set the mood with his Championship record sizzler.
The time clocked was also a personal best for Jereem, bettering the 19.97s run he produced back in 2017. At 19.83s, Richards is now joint-fifth on the 2022 world outdoor performance list.
Mauricia Prieto emerged victorious in the women’s 200m as the Simplex sprinter sprinted to the line in 23.31 seconds.
