Garingal star Duncan Currie has won the junior men's elite Sprint at the national Easter carnival in Perth.

Duncan beat a quality field to win by an impressive 35 seconds at Scotch College campus.

It's his first solo win in the National League, following NSW's Australian Relay champs win at Hill End three weeks ago.

He has nominated for the junior world champs in the European summer and these early results keep his name in front of the selectors.

"I looked at the map beforehand and was focusing on running fast and taking good route choices," said Duncan.

"There were a lot of complex buildings in a small area but I had a really clean."

Our NSW winners (there were 16) were: Aoife Rothery (BF, W12A), Erika Enderby (NC, W14A), Nikolett Halmai (GO, W35A), Cath Chalmers (BF, W50A), Barbara Junghans (GO, W65A), Oliver Freeman (BF, M14A), Duncan Currie (GO, M20E), Istvan Kertesz (GO, M35A), Stephen Craig (NC, M50A), Michael Halmy (BN, M55AS), Eoin Rothery (BF, M60A), Gordon Wilson (BN, M65A), Ian Warlters (BB, M65AS), Ron Junghans (GO, M75A), Brian Cleland (UR, M80A), Samantha Mella (NC, W Open B).
