As I stated the rivarly between the USA and Jamaica goes back a long time.The 200m final in 1948 was a USA vs Jamaica final,La Beach the family as told by the son Byron had a rich history in Jamaican and Panamanian T & F .
We need to include that when anyone comes with the story that our T & F came out of nowhere and point out the fact, we have been there as part of the olympic foundation and have always exported talent with Panama being one of the 1st beneficiaries.
One can argue our 1st olympic { 4} medals were acquired in 1948, 3 for Jamaica and 1 for Panama.
