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 />
