With plenty of SKAAC Athletes at the All Schools over the last weekend and a special performance by Michael Romanin in Brisbane the season has got off to a flyer for SKAAC.
Firstly to Michael Romanin’s effort in Brisbane over 200m on Saturday in the Qld Club Championships. Simply BRILLIANT.
Michael won the race in a huge PB of 21.20sec (+2.0ms) which is the fastest ever by a SKAAC athlete, taking out Matthew Burmiester’s 21.0h (+3.0ms) effort from Arlington USA over 23 years ago. Michael is a super talent and super humble and has put together a really strong winter with his coach John Nicolosi and this year is shaping as a special season for Michael as he now finds himself inside the top 10 Australians over 200m in 2016.
