We had a great night at the Cork City Sports where out athletes excelled themselves once again. Aisling Groarke was the first to claim victory taking GOLD in the girls u13 600m with a stunning run. In the 1500 Junior men Odhran O'Sullivan had an equally stunning run to take GOLD also in a race he came 2nd in last year. Matthew O'Mahony had a fine run here also. In the Pole Vault Meabh Corkery took GOLD once again something she is getting used to at this stage. Katie Hennessy also had a fine run in the Junior Women 800m. It was a wonderful evening of racing and superbly organised as always.
