Strong performances turned in at Star Trackers Meet Wendell Miller and Tarajh Hudson.
The CARIFTA Games have been canceled for a second consecutive year, but that did not stop athletes from coming out to perform at the 18th Star Performers Track Classic 2021 at the Thomas A. Robinson National Stadium this past Saturday.
One of those athletes was Swift Athletics under-20 boys competitor Wendell Miller. He ran personal best times in the 200 and 400 meters (m) races.
In the under-20 boys 400m, Miller ran his way to a time of 46.33 seconds to come away with the win. That time qualified him for the NACAC (North American, Central American and Caribbean Athletic Association) Under 18 and Under 23 Championships, set for July 9-11 in San Jose, Costa Rica.

HANOVER Co., Va. (WWBT) - A 21-year-old Hanover County man is facing multiple charges, including rape and sodomy, the sheriffâs office said.
Frank Michael Uvanni was indicted by a grand jury on Feb. 16 for the following charges:
Aggravated Sexual Battery
Aggravated Sexual Battery
The victim was an adult woman, the sheriffâs office said.
Hanover County Commonwealthâs Attorney Trip Chalkley said Uvanniâs father is a sitting judge in the county.
A judge acquitted a Midlothian man Tuesday of killing a pedestrian in Colonial Heights while under the influence of alcohol, ruling that prosecutors failed to prove the driver was impaired even though his blood alcohol content was at the presumptive legal threshold for intoxication.
The victim, who was mentally disabled, also had been drinking.
After a three-hour trial in Colonial Heights Circuit Court, Judge David E. Johnson found Shane Erick Dent, 35, not guilty of involuntary manslaughter and DUI in the July 6, 2019, death of 65-year-old Jack Dale Leabhart Jr.
Leabhart was crossing the Boulevard near Birch Avenue in Colonial Heights after picking up some food when he was struck and killed in the far-right lane just after 9 p.m.
