The Leinster junior (under 20) and under 23 athletics championships took place at Scanlon Park, Kilkenny on Sunday. Shane Aston threw a new personal best of 43.76m in the javelin to earn himself a silver medal. This was a great result for the young thrower who is eligible for this age grade for two more seasons. Earlier this month he earned a place on the Leinster team for the Tailteann Games inter provincial schools competition. Shane is the first member of the club in many years to earn Tailteann selection. His training colleague Andrew Lynam finished third in both the junior hammer and the shot putt.
