ENGLAND ATHLETICS U20/U17 & U15 CHAMPIONSHIPS, Sheffield, February 11-12

There was plenty of revision to the all-time lists at Sheffield but pride of place goes to Thea Brown who surprised herself with a British under-17 hurdles record of 8.39 and also won long jump gold to underline her exciting prospects as a multi-eventer. She said: “I didn’t expect to run that but I have been training hard this winter.”

U20 men:
Consistent Medwin Odamtten equalled his 60m PB of 6.67 in both semi and final as he won by a clear metre.

Scot Dean Patterson showed the form that got him into the European under-18 final last summer with a clear 200m win in 21.35.

Onyeka Okoh, who was a semi finalist in the World under-20 Championships at Cali last summer at 400m hurdles where he set a UK age 17 best of 50.95, showed good flat speed with a 400m win in 48.15 after an indoor PB of 48.07 in his semi-final.

David Race set an indoor 800m PB of 1:53.11 as he defeated fellow sub-1:50 outdoor performer Jake Minshull while Ethan Brady-Jones won a close 1500m.

Daniel Goriola impressed in the 60m hurdles as his 7.72 went eighth all-time while runner-up Noah Hanson went 14th with his 7.77.

Morgan Williams won the high jump with a big PB of 2.05m as his first time clearance defeated four jumpers with higher PB’s including English Schools champion Luke Ball on countback.

William Lane set a PB of 4.86m in winning the pole vault by over half a metre.

Another dominant winner was Oeofeoluwa Adepegba who had 44 centimetres in hand in winning the long jump with a 7.22m leap.

The triple jump was closer with unknown Anas Fadeel (not listed on Power of 10) won with a 14.76m leap ahead of Daniel Akinradewo who matched his silver medal from last year with a 14.73m jump.

Isaac Kambamba Delaney set an indoor PB of 17.43m in easily winning the shot.

U15:
Farrell Fabusiwa won the 60m in 6.08 but was disqualified from the 200m final where Max Evans dominated with a 22.43 PB – indoors or out – and that Welsh record moved him to fourth on the UK all-time rankings.

Thomas Niewczasinski-Kirkland won the 300m impressively in 37.24 which is quicker than his outdoor best set when finishing third in last year’s England Outdoor Championships.

Calum Dick added the English 800m title to the Scottish one two weeks earlier with a 2:02.34 victory.

Multi-talented Hans Nmaju dominated the 60m hurdles as his 8.55 win moved him into the all-time top 20 and he also won the long jump with a 6.24m PB.

Ireland’s Conor Penney won the high jump by an astonishing 24 centimetres with a 1.96m leap that would have won the under-17 gold. It was an Irish record and a Championships record.

Charlie Platt was also a class apart in the pole vault as he won by 70 centimetres with a 3.80m leap.

Another domineering athlete was Lawson Capes as his 15.81m added to the many titles won by his family which began with his grandfather Geoff who won Commonwealth and European indoor golds 49 years ago.

Another world under-20 semi finalist Success Eduan also retained her title in the 200m with a 23.54 ahead of Cali sixth-placer Sophie Walton’s 23.77.

Ashley Nemits, who is coached by Trevor Painter, entered the championships with an indoor 400m best of 56.65 and outdoor PB of 55.39 and then ran 54.99 in her heat and then a top class 54.17 in the final which advanced her to ninth all-time indoors in the under-20 UK lists with presumably much more to come.

The 800m was far more competitive with a metre covering the top three with another Painter athlete winning gold with English Schools champion Indienne King edging European under-18 bronze medallist Iris Downes and King’s training partner Ava Lloyd.

Abigail Stratton comfortable led the 1500m in an indoor PB 4:31.28 while Meg Corker won the 60m hurdles by half a metre in 8.47.

Gabrielle Garber (Mark Shearman)

Gabrielle Garber (1.75m) headed the high jumpers while Charley O’Neill who last year won England indoor and outdoor titles, plus English Schools and Schools International and Midlands and UK School Games golds raised her all-time best from 3.56m from the week before to 3.70m.

Lucy Fallows, second in the England Pentathlon championships last month, won the long jump with a 5.90m leap.

Amelia Gray, only seventh in 2022, won the triple jump with an indoor PB of 12.32m.

World under-20 finalist Cleo Agyepong won the shot but her 14.10m frustratingly missed her indoor PB by a single centimetre.

U17:
Thea Brown took the meeting’s overall honour with her British record run over 60m hurdles.

The Sale athlete, who last year won the English Schools heptathlon and Schools International indoor pentathlon, had just missed her 8.56 PB with 8.57 in her heat but in the final she ran a shocking 8.39 to destroy her PB and jump from 15th to first in the all time lists as she bettered Pippa Earley’s 8.41 from six years ago.

Brown also won the long jump with an overall PB of 5.94m to better her outdoor best of 5.81m.

English Schools and Schools International 100m winner Oluwayemisu Akande dominated the 60m in a clear PB of 7.41 and only Asha Philip and Jodie Williams have run faster among UK under-17s.

Callia Downey, who last year was second at 300m, went one better at 200m with a huge overall PB of 24.16 which moved her to 10th all-time indoors.
