Round 4 – 12/11/2022
With competition at Doncaster again this week, we were down a bit on what we would expect, partly due to athletes choosing to run in the Vic Milers on Thursday. Diamond Valley used their Power Play, but were upstaged by Eaglehawk, who also played theirs.
The Women’s Under 20 team had a big win, with the Men’s and Women’s 40+ and Men’s and Women’s Under 14 scoring well. A special mention to Lydia Rinaudo who ran a national qualifying time in the 3k Steeple.
Round 5 of AVSL is this Saturday the 19th at Casey Fields and Epping. Information including draft timetables and current entry lists can be found on the AVSL Round page
Some of our athletes also competed in the Vic Milers meet at Lakeside on Thursday evening, with the standout performance coming from Remy Williams who smashed the Under 17 3000m club record by 8.74 seconds! His time of 8:25.00 bettered the previous record held by C McKenzie since 1985, and was less than two seconds off Jeff Chambers’ Under 18 club record for the same distance.
All results below after a few community announcements !

Did you know ?
If that if you enter a Throw and Go or Jump and Go event, that is literally what it sounds like – you just get one throw or one jump. Do you have a helpful hint to share ? If so, please email newsletter@doncasterac.org.au
