Ulster Schools’ Cross Country Report
Last Wednesday 9th February, 11 Regent athletes braved the icy winds at Mallusk to compete in the Ulster Schools’ Cross Country.
There were some excellent races on show, and the Regent athletes competed with determination in all age categories. Year 9 pupil, Luca Murray demonstrated an extremely promising performance to finish 25th in his second ever cross country race. Amelia Tyler finished an excellent 14th and Kyle Thompson displayed his talent finishing in an exceptional 5th place. Amelia and Kyle have secured their place in the Irish Championships which are being held on the 12th March at Mallusk.
Congratulations to all our representatives, cross country is not an easy sport and I applaud all our athletes for qualifying for the Ulster stage.
