With Liranyi Alonso a new star is born

During the centennial celebration of the Central American and Caribbean Games in the Dominican Republic, Liranyi Alonso achieved a notable performance in the 100-meter sprint, clocking a time of 10.11 seconds to set a new record. This achievement occurred alongside the public celebration of Marileidy Paulino, who was recognized for her established status as a world-class 400-meter athlete.

The event served as a dual showcase for Dominican track and field talent. While Paulino’s presence solidified her standing as a global sports icon, Alonso’s performance was highlighted as a surprise development, marking her emergence as a rising figure in the sport.
