Limerick's Ciara Neville, of Emerald AC
LIMERICK athlete Ciara Neville was in scintillating form at the prestigious Diamond League meeting in Lausanne, Switzerland on Thursday night.
Emerald AC athlete Neville was a member of the Ireland women’s 4x100m relay team which ran a new national junior record of 44.31.
The Irish team, which also included Sharlene Mawdsley, of Newport, as well as Molly Scott and Gina Akpe-Moses, claimed a sixth-placed finish in the high class race.
The contest was won by Switzerland in a new national record time of 42.53.
This performance puts the exciting young Irish relay team third in terms of time at World U-20 level this year.
Afterwards Neville tweeted: “Grateful for the opportunity to race in our first Diamond League tonight!! Surreal Experience and hungry for so much more”
