Junior CASA: Arjoon, Verwey crowned champions as Guyana bags nine medals

Ethan had to settle for silver after getting injured in the Under-13 final against the hosts’ Jakob Noblett.

Noblett won the first set 13-11, but Bulkan led the second 6-4 when he had an apparent groin strain.

Ethan’s elder brother, Egan, will return home happy as he won bronze at his first CASA when he defeated Barbadian Ethan Cyrus 11-7, 11-5, 11-3 in the U-13 third-place match.

However, he still has more work to do as he will likely replace his injured brother, Ethan, in the team segment.

Alphonso Jr. got the better of Seth Thong 11-3, 11-9, 11-8 in his Under-19 match, while Sumner got U-17 bronze by defeating Sarrayah Yearwood 13-11, 11-7, 11-6.

Fung-A-Fat also got a big win as she took down the talented Josie Thong 9-11, 11-6, 11-6, 11-8.

Munroe won her first individual medal after playing an exceptional match, defeating Jamaican Varenya Singh 11-6, 11-6, 12-10, to win bronze.

The opening ceremony will be held Wednesday morning, after which teams will move into Doubles, and team events will occur from Thursday to Saturday.

Verwey and Arjoon will play Mixed Doubles, Alphonso Jr. and Mohryan Baksh will team up for the Boys’ Doubles, and Lowe and Sumner will partner for the Girls.
