KINGSTON, JamaicaâDemisha Roswell has been promising and she finally delivered, capturing her first Jamaican 100m hurdles title in convincing fashion, turning back Megan Simmonds and company at the National Junior and Senior Championship on Sunday.
Roswell has been knocking at the door over the years, and this year, it came as no surprise to see the fantastic form she displayed in early 2026.
Roswell won in a personal best 12.40 seconds ahead of Megan Simmonds in 12.47 and Kerrica Hill in 12.67. Janela Spencer of Ohio State University was fourth in 12.74.
