5 medals for Stoke AC Athletes at the English Schools

Another outstanding 15.72m Triple Jump from Ben Williams, and an excellent 5.72m Long Jump from Jazmin Sawyers gained the two Stoke AC and Staffordshire athletes Gold Medals at the UK's top schools competition. 

Ben jumped a metre further than his opposition and in fact also jumped further than the senior boys! 

Likewise Jazmin showed her elders no mercy as she flew out to the longest jump of the day.

Silver medals were won by Discus thrower Martin Bartholomew who finished only a few centimetres short of gold, as did Jade Weston in the senior girl's shot.

The final medal came from multi eventer Alice Lennox with a brilliant Bronze in the Senior Girl's Long Jump.

A number of Stoke athletes finished in possibly the worst place in a competition - 4th! 

Rob Dean in the Hammer, Mark Cooper in the Pole Vault, Katie Gardner in the Long Jump, Morgan Brown in the 100m and Chelsea Cooper in the 110m Hurdles performed brilliantly and fell just centimetres short in each case. Their time will come again.

The overall standard from the Stoke AC athletes showed that yet again we had one of the strongest representations of any athletics club in the country at these championships.
