Another great result for Doncaster in round 8 moving into fourth place, ensuring we will not have to fight to hold our position in Premier Division in the Playoffs. Athletes stepped up for our Power Play, as demonstrated by the number of athletes who hit their event limit.
Chris Butterworth at the start of his 400m Hurdles race at AVSL at Aberfeldie, while Brodie Mierisch gets ready in the Discus, Charlotte Senior makes a move in her 800m race at the Vic Milers Club meet at Box Hill, while Jemma Young strides out in her 800m race.
For the first time, Mens Under 16 topped A Zone while the Womens Under 14 were third in the stage and the Mens 40+ fifth.
We also had two athletes compete in the AV Throwers meet at Sandringham on Sunday. Declan Carman won the Men’s Discus, throwing 55.39m on his fifth attempt and Jessica Nolan finished second in the Women’s Javelin with a best throw of 26.56m.
And, a special mention to Zach Nunis who is competing in the US college system for the University of Idaho. On Sunday, Zach won the long jump competition in the Lauren McCluskey Memorial Open with a best performance of 7.44m.
Today, we have the Victorian Relay Championships being held at Lakeside Stadium. With over twenty teams entered across all age groups, we are anticipating some great results. The competition will also act as a curtain raiser event to the Zatopek:10 competition being held this evening. Abbey Caldwell will be in action in the Open 1500m, our Open Men’s 4x400m team will also be in action in the final and Joel Tobin-White is contesting the main event, the Australian 10,000m championship.
And this weekend, we have nineteen athletes competing in a range of events in the Victorian Country Championships.
