BARBADOS’ MIDDLE DISTANCE sprint queen Mary Fraser wants to run at the CARIFTA Games again.

But for the time being, she will have to settle for running at her school, Daryll Jordan, after being barred from competing at this weekend’s two-day National Junior Championships starting at the National Stadium, today.

Fraser was on the track at the Usain Bolt Sports Complex yesterday, but her efforts weren’t enough to stop Ifill House (Blue) from running away with the overall title with 1 994 points.

Her house, Ward (Green), were second on 1 792, followed by Jordan (Yellow) 1 696 and Corbin (Red) 1 127.

Both Fraser and her physical education teacher, Shakira Shorey, in a joint interview with SATURDAY SPORT yesterday, expressed disappointment that the 2015 Austin Sealy Trophy winner won’t be competing at Nationals.
