Meet wraps up on Sunday

The qualifiers at the Canadian Olympic and Paralympic track and field trials in Montreal are presented oversized, cardboard commemorative Air Canada tickets to Paris.

Katzberg looks on form heading into the Olympics as his throw at nationals approached his 84.38 metres from April in Nairobi, Kenya, which was the farthest hammer throw in 16 years and the ninth longest all-time. It continued his relentless climb that began with the silver medal in the 2022 Birmingham Commonwealth Games and continued with gold medals in 2023 at the world championships in Budapest and Pan Am Games in Santiago, Chile.

Victoria-based Gabriela Debues-Stafford, fifth in the 1,500 metres at the Tokyo Olympics, won the women’s 5,000 metres at the trials in 15:33.50. Among the other highlights of the qualifying meet, which concludes today, has been Olympic multi-medallist Andre De Grasse of Markham, Ont., winning another Canadian 100-metre title and Sarah Mitton of Nova Scotia also stamping her ticket to Paris by winning a fourth-consecutive women’s shotput national championship.
