There were some amazing performances by all and it was great to see the preparation the athletes had put in, pay off.
The 100m was a very competitive field which saw 2 men under 11s , whilst 11 men ran under 12s. Our very own Dom Lee a first year student studying Engineering ran a PB of 12s . The winner of the women's 100m was U20 Heidi Norgrove in a time SB time of 12.77s, Anita Dzre was close behind for second place in a SB 12.93s.
