GUYANESE Olympian Emmanuel Archibald achieved another milestone on the final day of the track and field segment of the Islamic Solidarity Games on Thursday giving the country their second medal.

Archibald, competing in the men’s long jump put in a strong showing to capture a bronze medal.

Uzbekistan’s Anvar Anvarov was first place with a highest jump of 8.09 meters with Senegalese Amath Faye grabbing silver medal in the men’s long jump finals.

Archibald who holds the national record of 8.22 meters achieved in May in the USA, had a best jump of 7.56 meters to reach the podium in Saudi Arabia.

Archibald also grabbed fifth place in the 100m finals in 10.44 seconds.

Meanwhile Guyana’s Keliza Smith produced a fine run to also capture bronze in the Women’s 100m final on Tuesday at the Prince Faisal Bin Fahad Stadium.

Smith clocked 11.59 seconds, just shy of her season-best 11.45, after winning her heat earlier in the day.

Olympic quarter-miler Aaliyah Abrams also reached the final where she finished 6th place.

In the javelin, Guyana’s Leslain Baird took fourth place with a best throw of 72.26 seconds a far cry from his personal best 78.26 metres which earn him bronze at the Pan American Games.

The Islamic Solidarity Sports Association (ISSA) Games brought together athletes from over 57 member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).

The competition which started in 2005 featured 270 events across 19 sports, including athletics, boxing, swimming, table tennis, and weightlifting, as well as emerging disciplines such as esports and para sports.

The team was led by Chef de Mission Garfield Wiltshire and Nalini Mc Koy Assistant Chef de Mission.

Guyana also fielded a team to compete in table tennis and swimming but failed to clinch medals in both disciplines.
