Match 1 - Jarrow
4 May 2008


The Lincoln Wellington squad made an excellent start to their Young Athletes Division Northern 1 East campaign with a fine performance in their first match of the season at Jarrow. The U17 Men scored prolifically and maximum points came in the 800m with Chris Woodger taking the A race in 2m 04.2s and Jack Skeet claiming a B race win in 2m 05.3s. The same pair also picked up maximum high jump points with clearances of 1.55m and 1.35m respectively. Good throws in the javelin resulted in another set of maximum points with Joe Dunderdale recording 33.64m and Simon Parr 30.66m. The 3000m also brought a double win with Jon Humberstone crossing the line in a useful 10m 05.3s to win the A race and Ryan Stephenson following up in the B contest in 10m 32.7s. And yet another Wellington 1-2 came in the 1500m steeplechase from Stuart Campbell (4m 51.5s) and Joe Dunderdale (5m 32.1s). Matt Houlden had a productive day and won the triple jump with 12.91m and the 200m in 23.9s. He was also 2nd in the 100m in 12.0s with Neil Humberstone taking the B race in 12.3s.

In the 400m flat, both Stuart Campbell (54.9s) and Simon Parr (57.8s) finished in the runners-up slots. The U17 Women made a good start when Laura McMunn (13.51m) and Holly Haywood (11.05m) both won the hammer contests. Hester Talbot was a clear cut winner of the 800m in 2m 25.8s and finished 3rd in the 300m in 45.4s.

An easy win in the 1500m for Becky Dobson in 5m 10.0s gave Wellington a final success in the U17 age group.

The very promising sprinter Caitlin Lynch took the U15 Girls 100m in 13.3s and followed up in the 200m with a win in 27.0s. The B 100m went to Hannah Dunderdale in 13.9s and she completed a good hat-trick with further wins in the 75m hurdles in 12.9s and the shot with 9.43m. Becky Wells (3.45m) and Libby Read (3.54m) picked up good points in the long jump with the latter also taking the B 800m in 2m 41.9s. Jasmine Cornwell was runner-up in the A race in 2m 38.4s and Megan Ball was a good 3rd in the 1500m in 5m 15.3s. Richard Brine (2m 28.4s) and Sam Chapman (2m 43.9s) took the two U15 Boys 800m races and then went on to repeat the double in the 100m with an A race win for the former in 14.0s and a B race success for the latter in 14.2s.
