Autumnal weather greeted the twenty-five athletes at Landy Field on Wednesday evening. Luke Haines was the meet’s star, winning all 3 events. He was put to the sword by Damin Mole in the 100 metres and Dave Palmer in the 800 metres whilst his 3 000 metres win was much more comfortable. Thanks to Kath, Fred and Martin who officiated.
