Kajaks hang with De Grasse
Richmond Kajaks sprinters got the chance to
hang briefly with one of the world’s fastest men Wednesday.
After racing against Andre De Grasse in the
men’s 4 x 100-metre relay during the 2018 Vancouver Sun Harry Jerome
International Track Classic at Swangard Stadium, Serge Serbinenko, Tanin
Seward, Liam McLeod and Carson Bradley proudly gathered for a keepsake photo
with the Canadian Olympian. De Grasse and his Team Canada teammates won the
Canada/China Challenge race in a meet record 38.42 seconds, with China second
in 39.62. The young Kajaks placed sixth in 44.28 seconds.
De Grasse, 23, won the silver medal in the
200 metres and bronze medals in the 100 metre and 4 x 100-metre relay races at
the 2016 Olympic Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro.
Kajaks teams also earned a pair of
first-place finishes and a fifth at the Harry Jerome Classic. The junior
development under-13 men and women won their respective relay races, with the
under-11s fifth.
Kajaks’ jumper Eric Che was a scholarship
recipient at the Jerome meet.
