[hr] Tottenham Hotspur played out an entertaining 0-0 draw with the Jamaican national team as part of their post-season trip to the Bahamas. But a 39th-minute injury to Kyle Walker soured the stalemate between Spurs and Theodore Whitmore’s side, as the defender hobbled off following a strong challenge by Evan Taylor. Andre Villas-Boas left Gareth Bale on the bench for the clash in the Bahamas, but named a strong side including Walker, Mousa Dembele, Gylfi Sigurdsson and Jermain Defoe. The Portuguese’s impressive lineup was matched by his side’s laudable intent from the off, and Spurs took only seven minutes to direct a shot at goal, with Defoe narrowly hitting it over after a Lewis Holtby corner The Concacaf outfit, clearly keen to maintain a competitive edge throughout this post-season friendly, also came close within the opening 20 minutes with Jeremie Lynch and Jermaine Hue threatening Brad Friedel’s goal. [hr] [column2] [/column2] [column2_last] [/column2_last] [hr] Their pressure nearly told shortly after the half hour mark as Keammar Daly bent a superb effort onto the American’s far post, with Tottenham’s early intensity having dissipated in front of a noisy, atmospheric crowd at the Thomas A.

[hr] KINGSTON — The following are results from the elite events at the 2013 Jamaica International Invitational track and field meeting, which took place at the National Stadium in Kingston on Saturday night. The meeting, which showcase several of the world’s best athletes in both running and field events, was also without several superstars who are recognised both locally and globally. Amongst them were six-time Olympic gold medallist Usain Bolt and his training partner Yohan Blake, who were both out because of hamstring injuries. Also missing the meeting was former 100m world record holder Asafa Powell, who remains cautious after picking up a minor groin and hamstring injury earlier this season. Carmelita Jeter, the American sprint sensation also missed the meet with a minor injury and she was very disappointed about not being able to compete in front of the Jamaican track and field fans. The meeting, at the same time, featured the likes of Veronica Campbell-Brown and Shelly Ann Fraser-Pryce of Jamaica, who took the women’s 100m and 200m sprints in respective times of 11.01secs and 22.38secs. Jamaica’s Stephanie McPherson shocked everyone to win the women’s 400m dash in a personal best 50.43 to win American Tyson Gay produced […]

  Unlike our extremely successful high-school teams, our colleges have tougher times at the Penn Relays. However, 10 years after a historic first win by a Jamaican college at Penn, the University of Technology (UTech) is primed for speed in Philadelphia. The UTech Knights are the defending college men’s 4×200-metre relay champions, and Carrie Russell is in form in time to repeat as 100-metre winner. In addition, the University of the West Indies’ (UWI) Traves Smikle is favoured in the colleges’ men’s discus. Early in February, a UTech quartet of Tyqueando Tracey, Andrew Fisher, Julian Forte and Nicholas Watson combined to run the 4x100m in 38.80 seconds at the Milo Western Relays. Since the US outdoor season has begun, only Texas A&M University has bettered the UTech time with its own fast run of 38.64. UTech has come close in this event before. In 2003, an Asafa Powell squad had baton problems in the 4×100, but recovered to win the 4x200m. Last year, a baton fumble left UTech second, but again was the lead-in to a 4x200m victory. Injured while leading the 2012 World Junior Championships 200m final, Forte brings good karma to Penns. He was on winning Wolmers’ teams […]

  PENNSYLVANIA, USA: Wolmer’s Boys’ will be seeking to make history at this year’s 119th staging of the Penn Relays when they go in search of their fourth consecutive victory in the boys’ 4x100m. Wolmer’s and Kingston College currently share the honour of having won the race on three consecutive occasions at the annual relay carnival, but the Heroes’ Circle-based school’s coach, Christopher Harley, is keen on his boys taking sole ownership of the record. “I wouldn’t mind winning the fourth one in a row as it would be the first it has happened and it is good to rewrite history, so I want to get that in our name,” Harley said. “I think this is a good set of boys, although two of them are making their first appearance at the Penn Relays. “So, I hope that they will be able to adjust to the weather especially. But from experience, I know what to do to make sure that they are ready for the occasion and I think that we will be fine.” The four boys who are set to take to the track tomorrow to commence the defence of their school’s 4x100m title are Yaniek Hart, Raheem Robinson […]

SAC last weekend. The U.S. has plenty of depth to fill her spot with the likes of Chelsea Hayes, Jeneba Tarmoh and Alexandria Anderson also in the pool.

Organisers never confirmed the sprinter, but according to him, it was certainly a meet he was looking forward to competing at. Powell, a two-time world 100m bronze medallist, is already back in training at the University of Technology-based MVP Track Club, but the 30-year-old said he his exercising patience concerning his return to the track. “The recovery is coming on quite well, I’m getting better very fast. I didn’t think it (injury) was anything serious but it turned out to be a bit more serious than I thought, but it still wasn’t an injury to keep me out for weeks. I’m back in training right now actually,” Powell told The Gleaner.     Eager to make a return The sprinter said that he started the year eager to make a return to the Jamaica International Invitational, after being forced to pull out last year from an expected clash with Usain Bolt because of a […]

Starkville, Miss.,– With Mississippi State only losing one player from this season’s team, the Bulldogs inked one of the best golfers in Jamaica to strengthen an already talented 2013-2014 club. Johnny Newnham, who attends St. Andrews High School in Boca Raton, Fla., played his junior and senior seasons in the Sunshine State. The senior was named a Florida first team All-state member in 2012. “We are very proud to have Johnny Newnham join the Bulldog golf family,” Coach Clay Homan said. “Johnny is a fine young man with a bright future ahead of him. He has a tremendous amount of power and will only get better as his short game improves.” Originally from Kingston, Jamaica, Newnham has a long list of accomplishments for the island nation. He was the youngest player to be named to the Jamaican national team at the age of 13. Newnham was also the youngest player to compete at the British junior open at the ripe old age of 11. Newnham is also a five-time member of the Jamaican National Team and a two-time Caribbean Amateur Champion. At the Constant Springs Golf Course in 2008, Newnham turned in a 63 to set the Jamaican course’s record. […]
