Grangemouth, Saturday 10th September
Great to see some Lasswade teams at the Relay Championships today. The U15 and U17 girls ran well in the 4x100m and had solid baton but unfortunately did not progress beyond the heats.
The U17 Men qualified for the final of the 4x100m as 5th fastest and improved to 4th against strong competition. The eventual winners from Shettleston would have finished 3rd in the Senior Men’s final. Aaron and Kieran made their debut for the club, with Kieran stepping up from the U15s age group to allow the U17s to field a team.
The Senior Men’s team also faced tough competition in the 4x400m relay which included the exact same Kilbarchan team that won the title last year. The team chased hard and left everything on the track to finish 5th. It’s fair to say that there wasn’t much appetitive to pose for photos after their race so this is the closest we got to a team photo!
Well done to all who turned out for Lasswade today and hopefully we can get some more teams out next year.
