Guwahati, Feb 10 (Ians) Abhin Bhaskar Devadiga of Karnataka and Ancy Sojan of Kerala turned in smart running on the bend to claim the under-20 men and women's 200m crowns respectively on the final day of the 36th National Junior Athletics Championships at the Sarusajai Stadium here on Wednesday.
While Abhin Devadiga, a student from Udupi district, added the gold in 21.34 seconds to the title he won a fortnight ago in the Federation Cup Junior under-20 Athletics Championships in Bhopal, Thrissur district's Ancy Sojan denied Delhi runner Taranjeet Kaur the joy of completing the sprint double the second time in as many meets with a victory 24.51 seconds.
A lot of attention was focused on Tamil Nadu triple jumper Praveen Chithravel. He won by a comfortable margin by scripting the four best efforts at the pit today but he was a good 19cm short of the 16.01m mark that he managed a fortnight ago.
