“It was a tough one waking up early in the morning at 4, sacrificing my morning time just to throw the shot. I knew I was going to get the gold from the very beginning.”
It was a double delight for Marist as May Nalani won silver with a throw of 13.0m.
Ratu Kadavulevu School athlete Jonathan Colamata with a throw of 12.86 settled for bronze.
