Castres. 6th European performance of the year for Samuel Conjungo

Recently, a throwing meeting took place on the facilities of the Travet stadium where discus, hammer and javelin were on the program. Mélissa Conjungo achieved 18m82 with the 600 gram discus, 22m99 with the 300 gram javelin and 35m43 with the 2 kg hammer. The minimal Clara Khoukhi managed 21m48 with the discus and 28m65 with the javelin. Among the youngest, Clément Bonnet Viala threw the disc at 25m45. Sandrine Gardes propelled her hammer to 43m65. But the biggest performance for the colors of Tarn Sud Athletics remains the score returned by the Castres Samuel Conjungo, 15 years old, 1m90 for 80 kg. The young athlete broke two of his records by achieving 61m73 on the hammer, the best French performance, and 56m05 on the discus, the best French performance and the 6th European performance of the year in his age category. A jet that puts him just 45 centimeters from the minimum for the European Cadet Championships. To be continued…

The young colossus from Castres had already distinguished himself during the recent French winter throwing championships. On the Salon de Provence facilities, the youngest from Tarn Sud Athlétisme had won gold in the hammer throw before immediately going on to a silver medal in the disc competition, beating his personal bests each time. The future therefore seems paved with medals for Samuel, who is following in the footsteps of his father Michael, a former Olympic athlete for the Central African Republic.

TSA athletes will have many more opportunities to shine during this lovely month of May. On the 21st, the 4th day of departmental chick activities will take place near Graulhet. On the 22nd, the Travet track will be the scene of the 2nd round of interclubs for cadets, juniors, hopefuls, seniors and masters. A Travet stadium where youngsters, minors, cadets, juniors, hopefuls, seniors and masters will meet for a new meeting devoted to throwing. A new opportunity to break new records?
