NKOSI DUNWOODY captured another gold as his medals continued to rush in for Barbados at the Central American and Caribbean Amateur Swimming Confederation (CCCAN) Championships at the Aquatic Centre on Thursday night.

Barbados hauled in ten more medals to take their overall medal tally to 30 medals. The swimmers won two gold, five silver and three bronze medals on Thursday night and have surpassed the 2013 medal haul of 29 (seven gold, 12 silver and ten bronze).

This is the most medals won by a Barbadian team at CCCAN and there is still one more day left in the competition.

Nkosi Dunwoody added yet another gold medal to his tally when he won the 11-12 Boys’ 200 metre freestyle in 2:10.43. Costa Rica won silver and bronze, thanks to Ignacio Retana (2:12.30) and Gabriel Nunez (2:12.84). (PG)
