Vereance Burrows won a bronze in the men's 50 meter Butterfly final with a time of 24.30 seconds. "This medal for me was a big relief because I felt that I should have medaled in two other of my events, but I came up short. I was frustrated all week with my performances and that race was my last chance, so I focused all my frustrations into that race and the end result was a bronze with a mixture of overjoy and relief," said Burrows.This was Burrows first ever CAC Games medal and the first for a Bahamian male this year.
