LASSWADE ATHLETIC CLUB

Well it was worth the wait !!

Attached are the results of match 3 of the CSSAL from Sunday 28th August at Kilmarnock

Starting the day as second bottom equal and in real danger of relegation Team Manager Morton mustered a near full squad.

All athletes stood up to the test finishing the day 3rd overall and securing their league status once again.

A huge well done to all involved throughout the campaign often covering in events that was not their first choice.

It never fails to impress what Lasswade AC can do when we get a full team out.

Sunday 14th August
Scottish 4 x 100m Relay Age Group Championships – Grangemouth Stadium

The club had four teams in the Scottish 4 x 100m Relay Age Group Championships at Grangemouth today, and all teams represented their club well.

The U13 Boys’ team (Alastair Scott, Dexter Howard, Harry Officer & David Malloy) finished 3rd in their heat, qualifying for the final where they finished 7th. This was a good achievement from the young team who are all still eligible for the U13 age group next season.

The U15 Boys’ team (Adam Leighton, Jamie Kinghorn, Angus Cousin & Josh Howard) were 2nd in their heat and 4th in the final, while the U15 Girls’ (Mia Downie, Michelle Blaikie, Kirsty MacEwan & Stephanie Ogg) finished sixth in their heat.

Our U17 Women’s team (Shona Gristwood, Bryony Patterson, Rachel Elder & Georgia Jones) had some changeover issues, and unfortunately never finished their heat.

This is the most teams we have had in the relay championships for a number of years, so well done to all who took part and hopefully we can have as many – if not more – teams in next year’s championships.

Scottish Senior 400 m Champion

Greg Louden built on Saturdays heat to win  gold in the Men’s 400m and Jordan Charters (now with Sale Harriers ) won bronze in the Men’s long jump.
