Leinster Juvenile Indoors 2020 – Day 3 (23rd Feb)

 

Medal winning performances on final day of Leinster Indoors

At the final day of the Leinster Juvenile Indoors at the National Indoor Arena in Dublin on Sunday 23rd February, despite some understandable stiffness in her legs from competing the day before, Shauna Leydon proved her competitive mettle by jumping to the silver medal in the u/19 Triple Jump and qualifying for the All-Ireland finals in March.

Having won the Leinster and All-Ireland u/13 titles last year, all eyes were on the Mullingar team of Kyle Faherty, Jamie Wallace, Matthew Molloy and Criostoir Ormsby in the u/14 Boys 4x200m Relay and they certainly did not disappoint! Leading all the way in their heat to win by a distance, they reprised the performance in the final and thanks to a blinding start by Kyle that opened a sizeable gap on the opposition, Jamie and Matthew dug deep and reinforced the lead so that when Criostoir got the baton for the final leg, it was all over and he was never going to be caught and he gave it every last ounce of effort to bring the team home to win the Leinster title in style and will be a team to watch in the All-Ireland finals.
