Hunts AC enjoyed stunning success at the Cambridgeshire County Championships last Saturday.
The local club won a total of 48 medals - 12 gold, 23 silver and 13 bronze - in Cambridge which represented a sharp increase on the 36 they managed in the corresponding event 12 months earlier.
Sprint stars Lizzy Harrison (Under 15 Girls) and Julian Priest (Under 17 Men) both completed 100m and 200m doubles.
Moria Howard raced to 200m honours at Under 13 Girls level while Issy Wilkins took the 1500m spoils in the Under 17 Women section.
Sisters Emma and Eleanor Phipps claimed pole vault success at Under 17 Women and Under 20 Women levels respectively. Joel Thomas also triumphed in that event in the Under 20 Men section.
Triple-jump talents Ella Reed and Ayo Opaleye leaped to victories in the Under 17 Women and Under 17 Men categories while the other Hunts AC success also arrived in the latter age group thanks to discus thrower Thomas Smith.
Faith Harrison (younger sister of Lizzy) took silver in the 100m and 200m events for Under 13 Girls while Howard added to her medal collection as runner-up in the 70m hurdles and long jump in that age bracket.

And there was further success for Hunts AC at the Bedforshire County Championships last weekend.
Callum Stokes completed a medal brace at that event by winning the 400m and taking third place in the 200m at Under 20 Men level.
Three other Hunts AC members - Jessica Cooke (Under 17 Women, 300m), Francesca Riley (Senior Women, 400m) and Janice Amber (Under 20 Women, 400m) earned silver medals.
Hunts AC official Wayne DuBose said: "Our haul of 54 medals across the two county championships events is a reflection of not just the ability and focus of our athletes, but also the dedication of our coaches.
"Our membership has risen significantly over the past year and we're benefitting from the addition of lots of natural talent which will be nurtured over time.
"Hunts AC is without doubt a club on the rise and it is great to be a part of it."
