19 June 2013

We are proud of the inclusion of four Kovsie athletes in the SA Student team for the World Student Games.

Wayde van Niekerk (400 m and 4x400 relay), Gideon Trotter (200 m and 4x100 relay), Rynardt van Rensburg (800 m) and Dumisani Hlaselo (1500 m and 5000 m) will compete in Kazan, Russia, from 6 to 17 July 2013.

At this stage, Wayde and Rynardt are participating abroad. On 12 June 2013 Wayde won his first foreign race in Dakar, Senegal, in a time of 46.45.

Rynardt recently took part in two 800 m races. On 4 June 2013 he was fourth in Velenje, Slovakia, in a time of 1:47.51 and on 8 June he ended in the fifth place in Torino, Italy, in a time of 1:48.69.

Danel Prinsloo is a non-travelling reserve in the 800 m for the SA Students’ team.
