PSA Athletics Carnival
Well done to the students who represented Trinity at last week’s PSA Athletics Carnival. Four weeks of hard training had the spirits high, and after finishing fifth in 2021, a top four finish was the goal for the team. Winning six out of the first eight hurdles’ events was the perfect start to the day and set the tone for the remainder of the event.
In the end, a fourth place finish was an excellent result and hopefully is the beginning of some very strong years of Athletics at Trinity. Well done to Scotch for winning the Alcock Shield for the fifth straight year.
