RAFFLES Institution (Junior College) recorded their first A Division double in four years at the Schools National Track and Field Championships when they were crowned champions yesterday.

While their girls wrested back the title from Hwa Chong Institution, posting 197 points for a commanding 68-point victory, the double-champions achievement was all the sweeter because the RI(JC) boys barely retained their title from Victoria JC. They won by just three points.

Entering yesterday's final day at the Choa Chu Kang Stadium, RI(JC)'s boys were in third place with 124 points, behind HCI (128) and VJC (125).
