Cuddihy reinstated to Olympic team

Irish athlete Catriona Cuddihy has won her appeal against the decision of an Athletics Ireland Appeal Panel (AIAP) to de-select her from the Women’s 4 x 400m relay team for the Olympic Games, it was confirmed this morning.

She replaces Joanna Mills, whose Olympic dream is now in tatters just days before the start of the event, unless she appeals to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
