A commendable fourth place finish in the final of the men’s 4x100m relay yesterday brought the curtain down on Team Guyana’s participation at the Commonwealth Games here in Birmingham, England. 

 On the last day of competition at the overflowing Alexander Stadium, the Akeem Stewart, Emanuel Archibald, Arinze Chance and Noelex Holder quartet narrowly missed the podium after clocking 40.05s in the blue riband event. 

 England (38.35s), Trinidad and Tobago (38.70s) and Nigeria (38.81s) were the podium dwellers in that order.
