EVENT DATE - Sun 13/07/14 Venue - Tullamore Start Time - Uploaded by Garrett Moylan with thanks to Competitions Secretary Vinny White, Coaches and Selectors and Secretary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sunday saw the first day of the National Juvenile Championships held in Tullamore - two Nenagh Olympic athletes were crowned All Ireland Champions. Brian Naughton and Ciara Cummins both took gold in their events and Sean Carolan won a silver to complete a satisfactory day for the club. We also had some other good performances with a few 4ths, 5ths and 6th places but there were some disappointments as well. Brian Naughton and Sean Carolan completed a 1-2 in the u14 Hammer where both lads threw well and were comfortably ahead of the rest of their opposition. Brian and Sean have put in good work leading up to this event and it paid off with throws of 34.67m for Brian and 33.19m for Sean to claim their medals. Sean was 5th in the Long Jump later in the day where he was hampered by an injury but still managed a jump of 4.90m. Ciara Cummins lead the girls u18 2000m Steeplechase from start to finish where she proved too strong for the field and came home to victory in a time of 7.20.70 to claim another national title. Killian Cullagh was left disappointed when piped on the line for 3rd place in the boys u18 3000m Steeplechase. Killian was around the lead for most of the race but unfortunately didn't maintain his form at the vital time but we hope he'll learn from this experience. Josh Egan had a good day, performing well in both of his events, firstly in the High Jump where he finished 8th with a jump of 1.35m and then he was very unlucky to lose 3rd place in the final round of jumps in the Long Jump to finish 4th with 4.59m. Aoife Tierney was 6th in the girls u18 Pole vault with 2.25m while her sister Emily was 7th in the u15 High Jump clearing 1.45m with Alannah Deering also jumping 1.45m for 8th in the same event. All Ireland B Championships Denise Cullagh was our sole competitor in the All Ireland B Championships on the Saturday of the same weekend, she finished 8th in the u13 girls Shot with a throw of 5.15m Well done Denise and keep up the good efforts.
