Sprint hurdler Ronald Levy’s B sample has returned a positive result confirming two banned substances found in his A sample by a WADA lab in Canada after he was tested out of competition last month.

Levy will now have a hearing on the matter and faces a possible four-year suspension from the sport. The substances in Levy’s samples were GW 501516 Sulfoxide and GW 501516 Sulfone.
