In the men’s triple jump, Jamaica’s Paris Olympic medal contender Jaydon Hibbert was expected to win the event, but the World U20 champion wasn’t quite involved, paving the way for fellow islander Jah-Nhai Perinchief of Bermuda to win the title with 16.82 meters.
Elsewhere, in the women’s long jump, Nigeria’s Ruth Usoro leaped 6.70m to beat Jamaica’s Chanice Porter (6.50m), while USA’s Adrian Piperi threw 21.18m to win the men’s shot put title.
