This is a post about our U20 athletics team for worlds. AC has stricter standards for some events (slightly).

 

Men:

100m: 0. We have 3 men surpassing the WA standard (10.55) but none who have passed AC (10.50)

200m: 0. 1 athlete meets WA standard but not AC's. 

400m: 0. 1 athlete meets WA standard but not AC's. 

800m: 2.

1500m: 1

3000m: 0

5000m: 0

3000m sc: 0

RW: 0

110mh: 0. 1 athlete meets WA standard but not AC's. 

400mh: 0

Field events/Decathlon: ZERO, none even close to the standard

 

So we have only 3 male athletes qualified so far. Alarming? Perhaps, or is it too early in the season?

 

Women:

100m: 2. 4 women have surpassed the WA standard, 3 AC's. Shout out to 16 year old Jorai OPPONG-NKETIAH with a 11.51 (the wind was a 2.0 however)

200m: 2. 6 women have surpassed WA and 3 AC's. One has also qualified in the 100

400m: 0

800m: 0. 1 athlete meets WA standard but not AC's. 

1500m: 2

3000m: 2: 1 athlete also qualifies in the 1500

5000m: 0

3000m sc: 0

RW: 0

100mh: 0

400mh: 0: 1 athlete meets WA standard but not AC's. 

HJ: 2

PV: 0

TJ: 1

SP/DT: 1 (Julia Tunks)

HT: 0

JT: 0

Hep: 0

 

Total 7 women

 

So our team size is 10 only. wow. Fwiw 33 was sent in 2022

Weather conditions weren’t great, but Ethan Katzberg records another win in men’s hammer throw, with a best mark of 80.04m at the Taiwan Athletics Open! Very consistent!

12.99 for Michelle Harrison in the women’s 100m hurdles at the Racers Grand Prix. Decent time for her, should improve her Road to Paris points total. 

[Josh 13,467]

19.98m for Sarah Mitton in women’s shot put at the Stockholm Diamond League!

[Josh 13,467]

8:15.95 for Jean-Simon Desgagnes in the men’s 3000m steeplechase. About a second shy of the Olympic standard.
