Latroya Darrell warmed up for next month?s international track and field commitments in Morocco and Canada in style over the weekend during Bermuda Track and Field Association?s (BTFA) National Championships at the National Sports Centre.

Darrell, daughter of former pro middleweight boxer Troy Darrell, is due to carry the Island?s banner at next month?s World Youth and Junior Pan-Am Championships.

And the 2005 Carifta Games high jump silver medallist showed that she?s shaping up well for those two events by clinching honours in both the women?s under-20 triple jump and high jump in a meet which saw some 160 athletes compete over both days.

Earlier this year Darrell set a new local senior and junior triple jump record (12.29 metres) at the Carifta Games in Tobago.

The CedarBridge Academy student produced a season?s best of 1.75 metres in the high jump and a second leap in excess of 12 metres (12.02) in the triple jump.

Darrell?s personal best in the high jump is 1.76 metres ? three centimetres outside Zindzi Swan?s record of 1.79 metres.

Deon Brangman also warmed up for international competition with a solid performance, capturing the men?s under-20 high jump title with a leap of 2.1 metres.

Brangman has already qualified for next month?s Senior CAC Championships in the Bahamas and Junior Pan-Am Championships in Canada.

?Overall we had some really exciting performances in all age groups,? said national track and field coach Gerry Swan.

?We had some very exciting competition across the board over the weekend and it was really pleasing to see so many exciting and good performances by quite a number of our younger athletes. Overall I think competition was keen and very attractive.?
