After some brilliant performances at the Zone Championships in December Eastlakes LAC has 36 athletes qualified in 92 events at the Regional Championships (Region 2) to be held at Glendale on Feb 1 &2.
Highlights from Zone include:
25 1st places
22 2nd places
28 3rd places
21 4th places
Ashlyn Blackstock broke the U17 Girls Discus record in her first of 2 years in the age group
Matilda Granato broke the U12 Girls 80m Hurdle record and we didn’t even realise.
U7 athlete Arli-James Poole won four Gold medals from four events.
Our Senior Boys 4 x 100m relay team made up by Logan Ferguson, Reece McManus, Kedha Gray and Liam Granato won their event to the joy of the whole crowd. It was a very exciting race and we can’t wait to see what happens at Regionals for the boys.
Again the best part about our athletes performances at Zone was the way in which they supported each other and the sportsmanship they displayed throughout the competition.
Good luck to all of our athletes for Regionals!
