Mintern turns tables on club-mate Crowley

CHRIS MINTERN (Coláiste Chríost Rí) warmed up for next weekend’s attempt to win the national triathlon title in Fingal by winning the intermediate 3,000m title at the opening session of the South Munster Schools track and field championships at the CIT track in Bishopstown yesterday.

Mintern turns tables on club-mate Crowley

Mintern also gained revenge over his Leevale club-mate Philip Crowley (Glanmire CS) in the process after the latter had beaten him in the previous weekend’s 1500m final at the county championships.

Both coached by legendary Leevale Olympian Donie Walsh, the boys enjoyed a ding-dong battle yesterday, with Crowley going past Mintern as they rounded the final bend only for Mintern to find something extra in the tank to win the sprint for the tape.
