Nine Irish athletes named for Budapest

ATHLETICS Ireland have named a team of nine for the world indoor championships in Budapest, but could add two more to the squad over the coming days.

Marie McMahon-Davenport could be set to join Maria McCambridge in the women's 3,000m following an 8:58 performance in the US over the weekend.

High Performance Director, Elaine Fitzgerald, will be contacting the Co Clare athlete over the coming days to see if she would be interested in competing.
