Meanwhile, Lelean’s Maximus Lestro set a new zone record in the intermediate boys discus with a throw of 45.49 metres, beating the old record of 37.72m.
The 17-year-old told SUNsports that he was overwhelmed with his performance as he didn’t expect to break the record.
“I am shocked and happy at the same time with the outcome of my performance today, I wasn’t really expecting it,” Lestro said
“Personally, I feel I need to work hard and throw better than what I did today and try my best to break the national record which is 50cm.
“I am grateful to my parents and coaches for their never ending support as I look forward to prove myself in the upcoming Coca-Cola games.”
