2019 State Athletics Representative

Congratulations to Rizin Sharafuddeen, who on the 18th of October represented the College in the School Sports Victoria State Athletics Carnival at Albert Park Athletics Track. Rizin was the first student in Meadow Fair Campus history to represent the College in this event. He qualified to compete in the long jump after winning the regional competition back in term three.

Rizin jumped a personal best of 5.90m in the event and just missed out on a medal by finishing fourth. There are over 400 schools that compete within School Sports Victoria, so to be fourth in the entire state is a magnificent effort.

Well done Rizin!
