U14-U19 MUNSTER T&F 2013


MUNSTER T&F CHAMPIONSHIPS U14-U19 2013 

In comparison to the weather of the previous weekend the u14-u19 athletes of St. Brendan’s competed in very wet & windy conditions.   They travelled all the way to Templemore in Co. Tipperary.  Again many of our athletes achieved personal bests in their many events. Both Lauren O’ Grady & Riadh Malik got pb’s in the javelin with throws of 16.71m & 16.65m respectively.  Riadh got a second pb in her shot putt competition with a throw of 8.24m. 
Darragh Lowth came 2nd his u14 800m final in what was a very close battle & it was only in the final 20m that the race winner pulled away, but a very enjoyable race to the end.  Darragh was 4th in the 200m & was just outside of the medal position.  Eoghan Courtney also came 4th in his 200m with a pb of 23.26sec. 
U14     2nd        Darragh Lowth           800m
U17     3rd        Shane Lowth               400m
U19     1st        Eoghan Courtney        400mH
U19     1st        Michael Grimes           Triple Jump 

Thank you to club coach Shaz Malik & parent Barbara O’ Grady who brought the children on Saturday.  They had a very long day as the weather delayed most events & they didn’t arrive home until late Saturday night.  Thank you to Deirdre Courtney who drove on Sunday but was fortunate not to have as long a day.
