Results from the 6th round of State League competition held at Olympic Park on Thursday December the 9th.
For the first time this season Box Hill moved to the top of the competition in the women’s section while the men held on to equal third.
The two teams are suffering opposite problems. While the men struggle to find field event athletes, our girls are struggling to fill the longer track events. Hopefully the second half of the season, after Christmas will see both teams filled.
