CDSSA Cross Country Carnival
On Monday the Emanuel School Cross Country Team competed at the Combined Districts Secondary Schools Association (CDSSA) Cross Country Championships at Centennial Park. These students had engaged in a comprehensive training program for the eight weeks leading up to the event, training twice a week with the Emanuel running coach Jordan Williams.
The running conditions were perfect early in the day and the team appreciated the support of Mr Watt and the many parents who attended. Outstanding results included:
Brody Elbourne: 1st place 15 years boys
Victoria Miller: 1st place 15 years girls
Aiden Poswell: 1st place 16 years boys
Samara Trenaman: 1st place 16 years girls
Sienna Poswell: 2nd place 12 years girls
Shai Farhy: 2nd place 13 years boys
Aaron Harpaz: 3rd place 14 years boys
Jade Berson: 3rd place 16 years girls
Aiden Kanevsky: 5th place 12 years boys
Georgia Kahane: 5th place 16 years girls
The Emanuel 16 years divisions dominated their races, with five girls and four boys placing in the top 10.
As a result of such a successful carnival, twenty five of our best long distance runners have now qualified for the Association of Independent Co-educational Schools (AICES) Cross Country Championships to be held on 4 June 2019. I wish all of these students the best of luck.
