Great club news from Athlone today at the National junior and under 23 championships. First into action was Emily Corcoran in the junior high jump and she finished a fine third in a seasons best of 1m66 narrowly missing 1.69. Muireann meanwhile was having the best day of her pole vault life clearing a new pb of 2m 90cm and winning the under 23 title. On the track Luke McCann was in spectacular form easily winning the under 23 1500m in a new championship best time and Darragh Finn came 2nd in the same race. Alison Burke ran a seasons best in a very competitive 6Om hurdles coming 4th in a blanket finish. Well done to everyone on a very busy and successful weekend for the senior club.
