Adrienne Gallen has set a new Donegal Senior Women’s Hammer record at the Welsh Under-20 Internationals in Swansea.

The Lifford-Strabane AC athlete threw out to 53.55m, beating her own previous record of 53.13m.

The throw was enough for second place, for Gallen who was representing the Northern Ireland & Ulster team.

Jessica Charlie Bennett from the England South team won with a best of 53.85m.

Gallen was one of four Donegal athletes representing the NI & Ulster team.

Tír Chonaill AC athlete Fintan Dewhirst finished 1st in the 400m hurdles with a time of 53.46s, with England South’s Luke Dronfield in second in 54.36s.

In the 800m, Cranford AC’s Oisin Kelly was 6th in a time of 1:56.34. Scotland’s Ben Sandilands won the event in 1:51.67

Finn Valley’s Joseph Gillespie was in action in the High Jump but finished 7th, failing to clear the 1.72m mark.
