English Schools Combined Events Results
English Schools Combined Events,
Darcie and Becky have done the club proud.
Senior Girl Becky Milliner finished a superb 12th with solid and consistent performances throughout the two days of competition. In her first year, Becky has next year in this age group and will undoubtedly improve her overall placing.
Combined events is completely new to Junior Girl Darcie Benson. Naturally a talented sprint hurdler and long jumper, she was talented-spotted earlier in the season and, with the encouragement of her coach Lee Farleigh, persuaded to give the Pentathlon a go. She has gone from strength to strength, recording a string of PBs in the preliminary rounds. The finals in Chelmsford were quite a challenge but Darcie still recorded PBs in long jump and high jump to finish 21st overall out of 42 competitors. Her shot putt was the downfall, recording two no-throws and having to take a safe throw on the third to ensure some points were scored.
Well done Becky and Darcie
