Terrigal’s Georgia Wassall has taken out the Women’s 800-metres at the Australian Youth Olympics Festival.
Wassall set a new AYOF record, winning gold in 2:08:68.
Coach Kevin Wills says the race tactics worked brilliantly, with Wassall surging with 500-metres to go.
“The challengers couldn’t bridge the gap and she held on for a comfortable win.”
New Zealand’s Tarryn Davey and Lucy Jacobs picked up silver and bronze.
