GEC State Athletics Results
Glen Eira College would like to congratulate Austin Voges and Sasha Dubin on their outstanding performances at the Victorian School State Track & Field Championships.
After progressing through the Beachside Division and Southern Metropolitan Region competitions, both students qualified to represent GEC at the State Championships.
Austin produced an excellent performance in the 17 Years Boys 400m, finishing 2nd in Victoria and earning a silver medal.
Sasha also delivered an outstanding performance in the 12–13 Years Girls 400m, finishing 3rd in Victoria and earning a bronze medal.
These results cap off an exceptional athletics season for both students and reflect the consistency and high level of performance they demonstrated throughout each stage of competition.
In recognition of their achievements, Glen Eira College will be nominating both Austin and Sasha for consideration in the Victorian School Sports Awards.
Year 8 Cricket Team Progresses to SMR Finals Day
Congratulations to the Year 8 Boys/Mixed Cricket Team on winning their Southern Metropolitan Region Quarter Final and progressing to the SMR Semi Final/Grand Final Day on 5 November at Aspendale Gardens Reserve.
The team has gone through a number of changes across the season, with several adjustments to the playing group along the way. A core leadership group of Carter Ruka, PK Kumar, Vihaan Singh and Vaibhav Viren has played an important role in helping recruit and organise players, allowing the team to build a competitive and successful side.
The group is continuing to make final adjustments as they prepare for the next stage of competition.
Congratulations to the Year 8 team on their progress so far, and best of luck for the upcoming finals day. A successful result in the next round would see the team progress through to the State Finals.
