ST ALBANS AC athletes monopolised the U15 80m hurdles at Saturday's Herts County Schools championships at Hemel Hempstead.
Christian Gaddes (11.7secs) led home a 1-2-3 for runners based at the Westminster Lodge club with Luke Yaxley (11.8secs) and Jason Tang (11.9secs) in second and third.
All three attained the entry standard required to be considered for selection for the English Schools Championships at Sheffield in July.
That feat was also matched on the day by a clutch of St Albans members when winning their events.
