2019 State Athletics

Congratulations to all the Ringwood students who competed in the State Athletics Championships at Lakeside Stadium. An amazing effort to reach this level of competition and you should be proud of your performances.

Ella Hose – STATE CHAMPION!

Congratulations Ella on your outstanding performance in the 14Yr girls shot put multi class event. Two state gold medals in two years is a fantastic achievement. Not to mention you hold the record for the event. Well done!

Luke Anderson – Bronze medal 15Yr Boys Hurdles. Not the best start by Luke, making contact with the first hurdle but he recovered quickly and finished strongly to feature in the medals.

Luke Anderson, Tyrese Pomponio, Evan Cribb, Jack Martin – Bronze medal 15Yr Boys relay. This was a tough race with a number of strong teams going head to head. Cool, calm Luke got us off to an excellent start before handing of the baton to Jack. Not the smoothest of change overs but Jack made up the lost ground.

The change over between Jack and Evan was smooth putting us in an excellent position to attack the second half of the race. Evan came around the bend strongly to hand off the baton to Tyrese.

Unfortunately, this wasn’t the cleanest of change overs, something the boys will definitely need to work on in the future. However, once Tyrese had the baton in his hand, he put in a fantastic finish clinching the bronze medal. Congratulations boys. You blew the opposition away at Region and had another scintillating run at State.

 

A talented team that we hope stays together next year and goes for Gold.

 

Well done to all competitors on the day. Cameron Brown, Abbey Whitaker, Angus Norman, Jasmin Hass, Ciara Willey.
