Day 3 Results by event

Predictions

One of the favourite activities after Day 1 and Day 2 was to predict the Final results using the times in heats and semi-finals. They had done this for years and said it's never wrong. Even as early as Day 1, the prediction went like this: LSC A 3rd, B 1st, C 2nd and Overall Champion.

Turning the table

Before the relays in the CBSSA, which took place on 2002/02/22, LSC C grade led CGHC by 4 points. But CGHC won both relays and claimed the C grade crown. The two teams came to a similar situation on Day 3. Just before the final race, the 4x400 relay, CGHC was leading by 2 points. The LSC boys showed courage and determination by coming from behind to beat CGHC by the narrowest margin to win the C grade champion.

Double blow

Even since there was Interschool Athletics Meet since the 50's, DBS won all the A Grade titles except for a couple of times. But since Day 1, the predictions said a new name would be added to this much coveted trophy. Disaster struck again towards the end of Day 3. It was announced through the PA system, "In the Boys B grade 4 by 100m relay final, the team in lane two was disqualified." The direct consequence was that DBS dropped from second in the Overall to the unfamiliar position, third.

History in the making

During the prize presentation, the CGHC students were chanting, "We make history." Indeed they had. Never in the history of the competition had a school outside LSC and DBS, won the A grade and came second in the Overall. CGHC sounded a serious challenge to the traditional two horse race. We all look forward to the next Meet and witness the beginning of the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
