Day 3 Results from the Australian Junior Championships
The Tasmanian Junior team has been somewhat of a surprise packet at this years National Junior Championships finishing of their final day of sectional play in terrific fashion. Our young Tassie Tigers will fight for 4 medals in tomorrow’s finals.
Our girls pairs combination of Mikayla Fuller & Mikayla Gibson are our only team assured a medal when they playoff for gold against the NSW pair Ellen Ryan & Dawn Hayman. The ‘Mak Attack’ duo as they have been affectionately dubbed on social media will aim to become only the second Tasmanian girls pairs combination in history to win the coveted pairs title since Tasmania last held that same title in 2004.
All five of our boys team have the opportunity to come away with medals after our singles, pairs and fours disciplines all qualified for the bronze medal playoffs tomorrow. For a full wrap of who plays who in all playoffs tomorrow read below, with all Tasmanian matches highlighted in yellow.
