Khadjja Sampson who won the 2015 OECS Swimming Championships 100m freestyle bronze medal as an eight-year old, shattered her own Mournat Ozannes College Classic Series One Mile Girls Division record on Saturday.

Sampson, who's preparing for next month's OECS event in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, led the field before being overtaken by Sam Potgieter to finish in 6 minutes 40.64 seconds behind Potgieter's 6:37.49. She chopped her time from the 6:54.2 she ran earlier. Potgieter's course record is 6:34.56, established in the second race.

Reuben Stoby was the overall race winner in 11:32.57 and sewed up the title. He was followed by Julius Farley.

"I knew I would have won the series if I won this race and that's what I came out to do as comfortably as possible and try not to go too hard on this course because it's pretty difficult," Stoby said. "I'm not ready to even think about the record (of 10:45.3), maybe sub 11:00 I should be having in mind, but, I definitely want to chase the record in Virgin Gorda on Nov 5, so hopefully, I have what it takes to do that."

Katrina Lindsay won her second successive women's division to jump in the driver's seat for her first overall crown, after crossing the line in 13:57.55.

"It was a good race, nice course but a bit hot," noted Lindsay, who overtook early leader Saungie Liburd, who was running with the Rotaract Club. "I noticed from last time that she always goes out fast and I like the hills so I let her go and bring it back-or try to anyway."
