    When it comes to standout names of Jamaican men who excelled at the 100m sprint in recent times, one will easily think of Usain Bolt and Asafa Powell... but does the name Cleveland Laing ring any bells?
    Yes it does! The fast-talking, energetic dancehall deejay, more popularly known as Lt. Stitchie, actually had his eyes firmly set on reaching the Olympics and representing Jamaica, until...
    Watch this exclusive interview with Teino Evans Media, as Stitchie discloses the full story as to what really went down. He also admits that if his track and field dreams weren't derailed, it was quite likely that Lt. Stitchie might not have even emerged on the Reggae/Dancehall scene when he did!

    So many youth have gotten cheated in sports in Jamaica. Even the national football team . Sorry Lieutenant I understand your pain . 😔
    You still one of the greatest Lyricist. On till this day nothing no roughest like.
    You are the first Dancehall artist to get signed to one of the biggest record label overseas. You bless.

    Tivoli Comprehensive use to get a fight in every way back then but they couldn't stop them.
    They were dominant in football, netball and softball .. Yes I remember that Stitchie represented that school in track and field while Michigan represented them in football as a goalkeeper.

    Stitchie's life has always been an interesting story, that's the reason why God saved him and caused him to be steadfast and focused. It's very possible that he was fast because he's very energetic on stage and if you may, would have been very hypo as a child or youngster. Go Stitchie Go!!!

But stichie leroy reid run 10.47 in 1984 and ray Stewart was fresh out of school .You forget to mention aron lawerence who start the 4 x 100 meter .But your 10.3 would be make the team easily .
    I am also a sprinter from kingston college in the late 80s my BP is 10.66 and 21.66 I was not hot in the 200 but my 100 was good .
    I fallow track and field from the 80s until today .i never know that you could run .I am also a fan of you and your musical career , I still listen your songs love big broad hips and were your size .
