Hession on right track for world championships

Hession may have had to settle for second place behind the world silver medallist, Alonso Edward (Panama), in the 200m and the former European junior silver medallist, Luke Fagan (Great Britain), in the 100m but the Athenry man brought the crowd to their feet with thrilling finishes to both sprints.

In the 100m Hession was powering down on Fagan in the final strides as the Englishman held on to win by 100th of a second, 10.56 to 10.57.
