Two emerging athletes from Mackay represented Queensland earlier this month at the 2022 School Sport Australia 10-12 Years Track & Field Championships held in Brisbane.
Learnie Scott set the medal-winning tone early, clutching silver in a count back in the 11 years long jump, with a leap of 4.63m.
Eimeo Road State School student Ayla Moon ran a strategic run in the 10 years 800m to advance to the final. She found second gear in the main race, pulling out a four-second personal best to win silver. She then joined the 10-year girls medley relay representing Queensland where the team won gold and broke the national record.
For her efforts in track and field, Ayla was recently awarded the Col Webley Encouragement Award at the Mackay District School Sport Awards.
