A number of our current students and graduates enjoyed a great weekend of success at the Athletics Ireland GloHealth National Senior Championships in Morton Stadium, Santry on the weekend.
Current students to win national medals included Catherine Mc Manus (MINT & MMK) who placed 2nd in the 200m and 2nd as part of her club’s 4x400m team, Cormac Kelly (MINT) who came 3rd in the 1500m and Sarah McCarthy (AF) who placed 3rd in the Long Jump. Of our recent graduates, Mark Christie (MFCM, BBS) came 2nd in the 10,000m.
