#Champs2025: Lacovia star’s sprint double dream ends after false start
KINGSTON, Jamaica – Lacovia High’s Sabrina Dockery’s quest for the Class One sprint double at the ISSA/GraceKennedy Boys’ and Girls’ Athletics Championships seems to have ended when she was disqualified for a false start in the semi-finals on Friday.
Dockery, the fifth-fastest Jamaican junior female over 100m after she ran 11.08 seconds to win the event on Wednesday, had similarly been disqualified for a false start in the Class Two 200m final last year.
On Friday, she was disqualified along with Immaculate Conception’s Shevi-Anne Shim while former Class Three sprint double champion Abigail Wolfe of Wolmer’s Girls was also disqualified for a false start in her semi-final heat.
