Alana Reid wins Athletics Weekly award
Jamaica’s World Athletics Under-20 women’s 100m champion Alana Reid was on Friday named Athletics Weekly’s International Under-20 female athlete of the year.
Reid topped the voting in an online poll that ended on Friday.
She won two gold medals at the World Athletics Under-20 championships in Lima, Peru, in late August, taking the women’s 100m and anchoring the women’s 4x100m relay to victory.
Reid was also part of the Jamaican women’s 4x100m relay team that placed fifth at the Olympic Games earlier in August.
