A massive Aquinas cheer for Year 12 athlete, Holly Fausett, who won gold and bronze at the 2024 Oceania Athletics Championship in Fiji.
In an outstanding international debut, Holly won gold in the U18 mixed 4 x 400m relay, bronze in the U18 women’s 800m, and finished fourth in the 400m.
The performance proves she’s definitely a name to watch, as is Head Boy Hamish Murray who finished fifth in the U18 men’s 800m and sixth in the 1500m. His brother and AC alum, Callum, also placed fifth in the senior men’s 800m.
More than 1,000 athletes from 22 countries took part in the Oceania champs last month. To have three Aquinians selected in the 114-member NZ team is an incredible feat – strong AC pride in their achievements at this elite level.
