Noel powered to victory in his heat with a blistering time of 2:01.73s, eclipsing his own previous national mark of 2:04.01s. The Guyanese star held off a quality field from across the region, touching the wall ahead of Puerto Rico’s Xavier Ruiz (2:02.38s) and Guatemala’s Sebastian Bermudez (2:02.65s), as well as top contenders from Colombia, Mexico, Venezuela, and Aruba.
