Heat 4

The fourth heat took place at the Grimsby Institute of Further and Higher Education with 8 teams competing; Edward Heneage, Wybers, Great Coates, Elliston, Scartho Juniors A+B and Humberston A+B.

The 4th heat was extremely competitive with some incredible performances from Edward Heneage, Scartho A, Wybers and Great Coates.

Edward Heneage won 8/24 events whilst Scartho Juniors A won 9/24 events, with Edward Heneage’s consistency marginally pipping Scartho as heat winners.

Wybers finished in 3rd place with the highlight being a perfect 100% record across the boys and girls 2 lap relay, with Great Coates consistency landing them in 4th position.

Elliston, Humberston A, Scartho Juniors B and Humberston B completed the rankings in 5th – 8th position respectively.

The points system used in the heats had no bearing on the overall finding standings and was used to identify finishing positions for the heats only due to the variations in the number of teams competing at each event.

All results from all the events (boys and girls) from the four heats have been inputted into a spreadsheet and based on performance, each school was allocated a score of 1-26 per event. 1st place gained 26 points, 2nd place 25 points etc right down to 26th place getting 1 point.

Congratulations to the following teams who have qualified for next week’s final at the Grimsby Institute Sports Centre on Wednesday 3rd December 2014, 10:00 – 2:00pm.
