Two former students have been selected in the Australian Men’s Athletics Team to compete at the upcoming Commonwealth Games in Birmingham UK (July 28 – August 8).
Congratulations to Jacob Despard (SVC 2010-13) and Jack Hale (SVC 2011-14) on this unique achievement. Both are part of a six person squad for the 4 x 100m relay. There is also a chance that one of them could gain entry into the individual 100m event. Both are in Europe at the moment where they are involved in pre-Games competition. Depending on performances one of the two could be selected to join Rohan Browning and Jake Doran in the hundred.
The relay team is a definite medal chance with all six able to clock 10.2 sec or better for the hundred. So much will depend on baton changes!
