And Kiwi Juniors Dominate the all-Australia Relays

Published Sun 02 Oct 2022

NZ juniors topped off their success in the Australian School Champs with some outstanding results in the all-Australia Sprint, Long and Relays over the weekend. Even allowing for the inter-state relays dividing talent in a way that did not apply to us - how about wins in W14, M14, W16, M16, and second place in both the 20E's. In fact kiwi teams were also 2nd, 3rd AND 4th in W16; and a 1-2 in W20E seemed to be within grasp.

Jake McLellan M16 was our best - 5th in sprint, 1st in long, and in the winning relay team. OW's Rachel Baker performed creditably in W20E - she is 16. Our other members were Jonathan Green M16, and Nicholas Green M18 and M20E.
