Alastair leads NOL in 2020

Last Updated: Wednesday, 18 March 2020 20:48

Our recent coach-in-residence Alastair George is leading the junior men's section of the National League after the opening Melbourne Sprint Weekend.

The Big Foot redhead recorded a fourth, two thirds and a first in his four individual races. Monday's knockout sprints did not count for the NOL, leaving Alastair tied for first with Angus Haines from South Australia.

NSW team-mate Duncan Currie (Garingal) won race two but a mispunch in race three means he is sitting sixth overall.

Duncan's victory earned him second place in the Australian Uni champs (behind reigning JWOC gold medallist Aston Key who was running in senior men), while Alastair's time netted him third in the uni placings.

Aidan Dawson (GO) is the best NSW runner in the senior men (equal 8th), while Briohny Seaman (Waggaroos) is 17th in the senior women and Iida Lehtonen (GO) fifth in the junior women.

In the teams point scores our seniors are sixth, the junior women third and the junior men equal first. The full points table can be found here.

The next NOL round is down for Broulee on the NSW south coast in mid-May, depending on the coronoavirus situation. The weekend is also a NSW State League event.
