KINGSTON, Jamaica — Jamaica’s Jordan Scott rebounded from his first loss of the season to win the men’s triple jump at Wednesday’s Oslo Bislett Games in Oslo, Norway, the sixth stop on the Wanda Diamond League series, jumping a wind-aided 17.66m (2.6m/s).
Scott, the reigning national champion and the World Athletics Indoor Championships silver medalist and two-time World Athletics Championships 400m bronze medalist Rushell Clayton, who was second, were the only Jamaicans who had podium finishes at the last major event before the start of the Jamaica Athletics Administrative Association (JAAA) National Championships set to start on June 18.
Ackelia Smith was fourth in her first triple jump competition of the season; male triple jumper Jaydon Hibbert and women’s 400m runner Nickisha Pryce were both fifth in their competitions with shot putter Danniel Thomas-Dodd placing sixth in her event.
