 The 2018 Com­mon­wealth Games 200m cham­pi­on en­ters with an im­pres­sive per­for­mance at the New Bal­ance In­door Grand Prix at the Ocean Breeze Ath­let­ic Com­plex in New York on Feb­ru­ary 6.

In a per­son­al best run, which he paid trib­ute to his late friend and team­mate De­on Lendore at the end of the race, Richards, run­ning in lane four won the one-lap event in a time of 45.83 sec­onds.

It was his first 400m event in two years and he fin­ished ahead of USA's Ver­non Nor­wood, who clocked a sea­son's best (sb) 46.06, an­oth­er Amer­i­can Kah­mari Mont­gomery with 46.24 Cana­di­an Phil Os­ei (46.59-sb) and Noah Williams, al­so of the USA, with 47.08.

Ahye, the lone woman ath­lete on the team, will face the starter in the women’s 60m. The 2018 Com­mon­wealth Games 100m cham­pi­on has had an ex­cit­ing sea­son thus far, speed­ing to sev­er­al suc­cess­es in the event, most re­cent­ly in France.

At the Meet­ing de l’Eu­re and Meet­ing Metz Moselle Ath­lelor, she placed sec­ond with times of 7.19 and 7.21, re­spec­tive­ly. And she won at the Mon­dev­ille Meet­ing, Halle Michel d'Or­nano with a 7.24-tim­ing, last month.

El­cock will tack­le the men's ver­sion of the race. He has been blaz­ing the track on the US col­lege cir­cuit, sprint­ing to vic­to­ry in the dash just this week­end at the Na­tion­al Ju­nior Col­le­giate Ath­let­ic As­so­ci­a­tion (NJ­CAA) In­door Cham­pi­onships with a time of 6.60.

Wal­ters will race in the men's 60m hur­dles. He too has had out­stand­ing per­for­mances this sea­son open­ing with a win in 7.82 at the UAB Blaz­er In­vi­ta­tion­al in Birm­ing­ham, Al­aba­ma and al­so the Sam­ford In­vi­ta­tion­al at the same venue with 7.79.

Of­fi­cials trav­el­ling with the team, which is sched­uled to leave for Bel­grade on March 15 are Dex­ter Voisin (man­ag­er/coach), for­mer 2013 World Cham­pi­onships men's 400m hur­dles cham­pi­on, turn coach  Je­hue Gor­don (hur­dles) and mas­sage ther­a­pist Nicole Fuentes.

Lendore, who died in a car ac­ci­dent on Jan­u­ary 10 and was laid to rest on Thurs­day, had qual­i­fied for this year’s Cham­pi­onships and has been both in­di­vid­ual and re­lay medal­lists at pre­vi­ous edi­tions of the In­door Cham­pi­onships.

The team is ex­pect­ed to re­turn on March 21.
