Guyana claimed four medals at the Carifta Games at Stade Municipal Pierre Aliker in Martinique over the Easter weekend to end among the top performers overall. Double defending champion Cassey George and Kadecia Baird were the medalists for the Guyanese.
George successfully defended her 1500m and 3000m titles, while Baird won the 400m and took silver in the 200m after stumbling just on the line. These performances accounted for the three gold and one silver medal the Guyanese collected at the games.
Jamaica racked up a record haul of 88 medals to top the 43rd staging of the event for the 30th consecutive year and their 37th overall since the first staging in 1972.
Jamaica again topped the medals table with 88, 42 gold, 34 silver and 12 bronze.
Trinidad & Tobago finished second with 6 gold, 7 silver and 12 bronze, while Barbados ended third with 5 gold, 5 silver and 6 bronze.
Rounding out the medals were:
Guyana 3 gold and 1 silver;
Guadeloupe 3 gold and 8 bronze;
Dominica 2 gold;
Bahamas 1 gold, 8 silver and 11 bronze;
Grenada 1 gold, 3 silver and 2 bronze;
Bermuda 1 gold, 3 silver and 1 bronze and
