The St Martinâs Secondary also participated.
Points were allocated to the finishers and tallied to their schoolâs standings.
The females ran 4km, which was 4 laps of the course, while the males did 5km.
Although his team did not take the first place, emerging middle distance athlete Cassique Olliver was the first to complete his 5km run in 17 minutes 15.0 seconds.
