Local Sacred Heart College students, brother and sister Tyler and Piper Fynch, won gold at the Victorian Country Championships held at Lar Birpa Athletics track in Bendigo on the Australia day long weekend.
Tyler competed in the U16 1500m and 3000m run, claiming gold in both events with 12-year-old sister Piper victorious in the U16 2k steeplechase.
The event was a great shakedown before the upcoming Victorian track and field championships held later this month at Lakeside Stadium, Albert Park.
Tyler has also been successful in qualifying for The Australian Track and Field Championships to be held in Perth this April.
