Carlos Petterson-Griffith stole the show on his return to the platform when the Guyana Amateur Power-lifting Federation hosted its Novices/Juniors’ Qualifiers Championships yesterday at St Stanislaus College.

While Faraud Mohamed and Keisha Abrigo lifted the coveted best male and female overall Novices awards, the 93kg behemoth broke several records in his welcome back party.
