Seven of eight teams is a high for a while but it is regular to see four or even five teams from Jamaica running in the COA finals at Penn...last year Jamaican girls were in the top six in one race.

In addition in the HSB 4x100, yesterday, two of the Boys from the only American team-South Shore of New York are Jamaicans.
