UK Women's League, Division 4, Cardiff, Sunday 4 August 2002
Havering Mayesbrook’s senior
ladies secured another year on the national stage with a solid fourth place at
Cardiff in the third and final UK Women’s League Division 4 fixture on Sunday,
confirming a commendable third place in the league.
There was double top for multi events
international Kate Brewington who notched up long jump and hurdles wins, while
her sprint hurdles partner Claire Brennan was also an easy winner in the B
string. Brennan had earlier
improved her 400m hurdles best, a feat matched by younger sister Nina who also
recorded a new personal best mark in the B race. The versatile duo were kept
busy as Claire also tackled the high jump and relay, while Nina scored discus
and shot points before running a 400m relay leg.
Sarah Deacon was in good form, winning
the hammer and taking runners up spot in the discus, as well as scoring shot
points. Terri Johnson again
improved her hammer PB, as well as placing in her favoured 200m and running a
relay leg, but was disqualified in the 100m sprint.
Hayley Mottram raced to 400m B runners
up spot and also scored in the 200m, as well as contributing the fastest leg in
the 4x400m relay. Training partner Laurie
Cossey showed great team spirit in tackling the 400m, 800m, and 1500m, as well
as the 4x400m relay. The pair’s
coach Ruth O’Sullivan turned out in the 3000m and javelin, while another of
the training group Eleanor Mole made a good track debut with useful points in
both 1500m and 3000m events, both in PBs. Veteran
Lesley Felton completed the track team with 4th in the B 800m, as
well as a 400m relay leg.
Jumper Sue Bunting was fourth in the
triple jump and fifth in the long jump, while still-unwell middle distance
runner Faye Powell again tackled the jumps, with a triple jump PB and third
place high jump points to show for her efforts.
Hannah Gamester, still nursing a knee injury, nevertheless placed third
in the pole vault, and scored in the javelin, before rounding off in the relay.
