New BUSINESSES athletics records<br />
EIGHT students have set 13 new<br />
Darfield High School athletics<br />
records.<br />
The Darfield High School<br />
Athletics S Championships were<br />
held earlier this month.<br />
Sports co-ordinator Karen<br />
Armstrong said it was unusual to<br />
have so many records fall at the<br />
same time.<br />
“But we have some very good<br />
athletes coming through mainly<br />
as a result of the growth of the<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> Athletic Club based in<br />
Rolleston,” she said.<br />
“This is a great club which<br />
has meant more students than<br />
normal are participating in<br />
athletics.”<br />
New records set included:<br />
Senior girls<br />
Georgia Shinn – 1500m, 5min<br />
15.5sec (previous record 5min<br />
20sec, set in 2000)<br />

1983).<br />

HEARTY CONGRATULATIONS: The team of Arking Up, from left, Sam Henderson, Greg<br />
Salter, James Mounce and Lance Warren were the overall winners of the Lincoln Bowling<br />
Club’s community competition which finished this month. The last night of competition saw<br />
30 teams of four bowlers competing for the prize for the round as well as the overall win. <br />
Halswell fighting to claim two-day cricket title<br />
THE LAST round of the Metro<br />
cricket two-day season had topof-the-table<br />
Halswell hosting<br />
third placed Sumner at Halswell<br />
Domain.<br />
After being asked to bat first,<br />
Sumner were 60/1 after 15 overs<br />
and looking to put up a good<br />
first innings score.<br />
However, the Halswell bowlers<br />
started to slow the scoring and,<br />
as a result, claimed three more<br />
wickets to have Sumner 64/4<br />
after 20 overs.<br />
Sumner then had a good<br />
partnership to reach 95/4 before<br />
Halswell’s Dayle Eathorne took<br />
some wickets, bowling well to<br />
finish with 4-41. Sumner were<br />
dismissed for 160.<br />
In the chase, Halswell were<br />
24/0 before a collapse left them<br />
at 26/4.<br />
A 45-run partnership between<br />
Leighton Johnston and Jethan<br />
Jeet steadied the innings before<br />
Jeet was dismissed for 20 and<br />
Halswell were in trouble again<br />
SELWYN TIMES<br />
at 70/6. Johnston and Eathorne<br />
had a 30-run partnership, but<br />
after Eathorne was dismissed,<br />
Halswell lost two quick wickets.<br />
Johnston was the last man out<br />
for 46, and Halswell was dismissed<br />
for 118.<br />
Sumner then had 25 minutes<br />
to bat but Halswell took a vital<br />
wicket leaving Sumner 29/1 at<br />
stumps. Halswell will need to<br />
bowl well next week to win this<br />
game and claim the two-day<br />
championship.<br />
