B Division Discus: Brian See of Catholic High bags gold in second throw event

By Lai Jun Wei/Red Sports

Choa Chu Kang Stadium, Monday, April 25, 2011 — Brian See of Catholic High bagged the gold in the B Division Boys’ Discus event at the 52nd National Inter-School Track and Field Championships. He threw a distance of 42.31m to pip team mate Kenzo Tan to first spot by just over a metre. Brian’s medal is on top of the gold medal he had also won in the shot put event.

Duang Kewkacha of Victoria School threw a distance of 40.82m to complete the trio of medallists.

Brian, who also won a double gold in the same events last year in the C Division, has now achieved what several other top throwers in schools history have not done. Brian’s feat as a discus and shot put gold medallist in his first year in the B Division was something that Wong Kai Yuen, Scott Wong and Chua Weiliang — top throwers at schools level who have gone on to represent Singapore at junior and national level — did not manage to do.
