MANX HARRIERS TAKE THIRD IN NORTHERN LEAGUE

MANX RECORD FOR JULIE HARRISON

FULL RESULTS

Other Northern League results

Graham Davies said: "A really brilliant performance considering the team had to fill the massive gaps in the team with under 17's and Di Shimell had to turnout for the ladies at (O/50) to gain valuable points to keep the Harriers in a play-off position."

Andy Fox leads by example. Happy with 5th place at 6am in the morning, ecstatic with 3rd at 5pm, he finished 2nd in the Steeplechase in 10.01.02. Young Chris Shimmin who was the B runner also finished second in 10.26.9.

Subject to ratification, Julie Harrison, broke the Manx record for 800m on Saturday afternoon in less than ideal conditions in the Northern League. Not only  were the conditions not ideal but she also had front run the race from gun to tape.  Her time was 2:13:1 which equals Mandy Radcliffe's time but Mandy's time has never been ratified, current record stands at 2:13:2 to Danielle McCarrick.

Keith Gerrard (number3) was in contention in the 1500m until the last 200 metres. He finished 4th in about 4.06.2 but looked a little tired from the hard races of last weekend. Darren Gray, who set a new PB 4.13.5, was second in B race. (Graham Davies)

The composite Northern/Western Team left the Island early on Saturday morning knowing they had a strong team for both the mens and womens team, writes Jonathan Leece.

The womens team had two debutants on the day namely Faye Furnival and Hannah Thompson both in the under 20 age category. Both ladies acquited themselves well on the day picking up valuable team points to claim third position in the ladies team competition. The men did slightly better in what looked like weaker opposition than last month by picking out second place in the team event. When the composite point were added together the team were delighted to pick up second place overall.

Notable performances were a plenty with Louise Kneen dominating the throwing events ably assisted by Lisa Kelly doing the same in the B events, Louise threw an under par 33 metres in the discus but still managed to win the event with comfort. Richard Jamieson and Bernard Cannan reversed the results from the last meeting with Richard taking the honours over Bernard in both the Steeple chase and the 5,000 metres. Valuable points were gained in the Pole Vault by Alistair Mazzone by picking up second place, not bad for a chap who had electrocuted himself only two weeks earlier, perhaps you could say it was a "shock" result! However, Mazzone was a little under par by his standards in the Javelin picking up third place throwing the spear 39.26metres. Jonathan Leece managed to pick up another win in the 110 metres hurdles to accompany his win in the first meeting last month. Neil Callin picked up a second spot in the 110metres hurdles B event after stumbling into the third hurdle.

Louise Kneen - dominated the throws (ML)

Youngsters Davide Mazzone and Simon Corlett covered the sprints with Davide taking his "large frame" around the 800metres in a time of 2.28 in the B event with Richard Jamieson doing a short distance by his standards finishing in 2.13. Simon just beat Davide's time by one tenth of a second in the 100metres, Simon running 13.3 and Davide running 13.4 in the "A" race.

Peter Callin had a busy day but unfortunately did not finish the 1500metres due to a severe headache probably brought on by the humid, hot atmosphere as well as completing many events in a short space of time. He shot around the 400metres in 58 seconds with the 1500metres race straight after that race.

Richard Jamieson - reversed roles with Bernie Cannan (ML)

Christine Barwell covered a huge proportion of the track races and even said that she positively enjoyed it at the end of the day! She completed the 400, 800, 1500 and 3000 against athletes who has only done one or two events.

Neil Callin won the "A" high jump with a jump of 1.65metres with Alistair Mazzone doing well in the "B" event. The triple jump saw both Callin brothers getting over 10 metres in the triple jump. Matthew Kelly made a welcome return from injury in his fight for fitness before his Island Schoolboys tour of California in late June competing in the 200metres.

Thanks as usual go to the travelling officials, Rosie Morrison and Steve Kelly.
