Olympic duo Toea Wisil and Jeremy Dodson proved themselves as the quickest in the Pacific after winning the senior 100m finals at the Oceania Athletics Championships in Suva last night.

Papua New Guinea's Wisil ran 11.63 seconds to finish more than half a second clear of Australia's Morgan Gaffney.

In a bizarre scene, there was no winner in the men's 5000m senior race walk, with the only competitors, Fijian duo Rajeshwar Prasad and Pramesh Prasad both disqualified.

Australia's Murray Goodwin claimed gold in the men's 400m final at ANZ Stadium running 47.53 with Fiji's Samuela Railoa second.

Jamie Scroop cleared 4.00 metres to win the women's pole vault for Australia with New Caledonia's Caihe Caihe the sole competitor in the men's event.

New Caledonia's Linda Selui threw 47.29 to take out the women's javelin while Fiji's Isireli Bulivorovoro leaped 7.28m to win the men's long jump.

Fiji’s Roveen Permal also won gold in the masters 100m final.
