WMR Athletic Sports Report

Wednesday 17th October Moonee Ponds Athletic Centre

This year an enthusiastic team of 25 students qualified for this high-standard event. The conditions for the day were quite good, with reasonable temperatures and low wind.

All students showed real determination to achieve their best results. There were some PB’s achieved and some great experience for our up and coming athletes. A win on the day qualified students for the State Finals on Friday 16th October, so we wish Gurman all the best in her events.
