English Schools CC

WILLIS 13TH IN BLACKBURN

Wrexham's Matthew Willis, who won the English Schools' cross-country championships last year, moved up an age-group this time and at the meeting in Blackburn  finished a highly creditable 13th in the U17's race. The King's School pupil turned 15 only last month and so the result augurs well for next year.

 Meanwhile former Colwyn Bay and Eryri athlete Nathan Jones has been setting news pbs during his first year at McNeese State University in Louisana. In the exotically named McNeese Cowboy Relay meeting he clocked 8-34.74 while finishing second in the 3,000 metres.

 At the IAAF Cross-Country international in Antrim, which incorporated the home countries' international, Welsh champion Ffion Price  (Cardiff) finished 24th in 26.42, with Katie Parry (Leeds) 30th in 27.36.

 In the under-20s' race Brecon's Heidi Davies came home 4th in 19.29, with Bronwen Jenkinson (Eryri) 31st in 22.00.
