State Combined Event Wrap Up - 2 Gold, 2 Silver, 1 Bronze!

Over the weekend, 30 Mentone athletes competed at the State Combined Event Championships at Lakeside stadium, with the weather holding up well for our superstar athletes.

There were some excellent results, medals, records broken, an abundance of personal bests and some near misses, but as always, our athletes showed great sportsmanship towards their teammates and competitors. We're very proud of all their efforts!

We would like to congratulate all our 30 athletes on their results and perseverance, and give a special congratulations to our medalists:

Hugh Blandamer - U10B Gold
Hamish Fragiacomo - U10B Silver
Lexie Brown - U12G Silver
Liam Costello - U13-16MC Gold
Lily Parsons - U17G Bronze
