[Not a valid template]Preliminary results show that North Down Mens team were 2nd to Clonliffe Harriers on Sunday at Woodie’s National League Round 2 at Santry. As Leevale had a big score in the parallel round at Tullamore, North Down lie 3rd in the combined score and go to the final as third qualifier. The Womens team once more just missed out as they finished 4th at Santry and a close 9th at overall. A casual look at the results might suggest a pedestrian meeting but that would ignore the conditions. Though warm and rain free, there was a a big blustery headwind that varied between -3 and -8, making jumping very tricky and slaughtering track times.
[Not a valid template]Event winners in the mens team were Alan Kennedy at triple jump, Paddy McGrattan at 56lb weight for distance and Callum Graham (or Hunter as he wishes to be now known) at long jump. Michael Dyer was back and had 2 good 2nd’s at 800m and 1500m against strong Dublin opposition, Brendan McConville was 2nd at pole vault and 3rd at discus and Peter Glass was 2nd at high jump and 3rd at shot. In the womens team Beth Wilson won discus and Laura Saulters won triple jump while there were good 2nd’s for Alex Catherwood at high jump, Jessica Craig at 1500m and Roberta Dornan at 1500m walk.
