Sam Woolford from our Bush n Beach club is the latest NSW orienteer to be named in the Australian Schools Honour team following his sterling performances in Wagga this week.
The second of four brothers from Coffs Harbour, Sam was in the winning Junior Boys relay team on Thursday and enjoyed top-8 placings in the Sprint and Long races.
He was named along with Newcastle prodigy Alvin Craig, who won all three events and earned his fourth straight Australian selection, in the Junior Boys team at the Thursday evening presentation ceremony.
Iida Lehtonen (Garingal) and Nea Shingler (Big Foot) were named in the Junior Girls team for the second year in a row. Nea had two firsts and a second placing; Iida two firsts and a third.
Honour Team selections receive a certificate and an Australian O top. Well done to these four on this great achievement; it equals the most number of students we've had make the team.
