THERE WERE MIXED fortunes for Irish athletes at the World U20 Championships in Peru today.
Elizabeth Ndudi secured her place in the women’s long jump final tomorrow night after a 5.95m finish.
After an anxious wait for the results of the remaining two heats, Tallaght AC’s Sean Aigboboh qualified for the men’s 100m semi-final as the fastest non-automatic qualifier.
His time of 10.55 was enough to finish third in his heat.
However, it was not to be for the mixed 4×400 relay team who missed out on a place in tonight’s final.
Conor Kelly, Daisy Walker, Sean Doggett and Niamh Murray had to settle for fourth in their heat in 3:26.40.
