Scotch Triathletes in Full Swing
The Scotch College Triathletes have been training hard recently in the lead up to their competitions. The main one being the State School Championships that were held on Friday 4 November. Scotch College was represented well from Year 6 to Year 11 and were pitted against some of the most elite competition going in School Age division. Notable mentions must go to the 12-13 individual category where Rupert Currie finished 3rd and Jack Jagger 4th. The teams category also did remarkably well with the team of Tony Ghiselli, Lewis Crump and Max Mumme taking second spot. Our other teams were very successful but were unable to accrue points for the School. The Tri squad also went on to compete in Tim's Ride on Saturday and were exposed to a very important message concerning road safety. The boys learnt a great deal from riding in a peloton. The following morning the skills were tested in the Leftbank Triathlon where the team again raced individually. Special mention must go to our first timers: Jaxon Hayden, Zaide Moxham and Sam Hector. The boys completed their first Triathlon and have already been hooked. We wish Jack Jagger and Matthew Khowira the best of luck as they look to qualify for the WA team. Thanks must go to the parents for their ongoing support. We look forward to our Narrogin country trip.
