HAVANA, March 16 (Xinhua) -- Cuba has set its eye on six gold medals in weightlifting in the 2014 Central American and Caribbean Games, to be held in Mexico's eastern city of Veracruz from Nov. 14 to 30.
"Our goal is to win six gold, three silver and five bronze medals in men's category, while in women's category we hope to win two bronze medals," said Jorge Luis Barcelan, Cuban weightlifting head coach.
Cuba is expected to send over 500 athletes to Veracruz 2014 with an aim to recover the leadership in the medal rankings, especially after its absence from the 2010 edition held in Mayaguez, Puerto Rico.
