After a magnificent spell of weather it was looking decidedly uncertain for Oxton Border Games on Saturday. However, when events commenced the rain stayed away. The main event of the day the 110m Open Sprint was a cracker. By the smallest of margins Scott Elliot of Jed AC got the judges decision just holding off Scott Tindle of TLJT with the ever consistent Nina Cessford also of TLJT in third. It was also an excellent finish to the Senior 200m with Cameron Clamp of TLJT emerging victorious from Matthew Bell of Hawick and Fraser Neil of Kelso.
Here are the full results from Oxton and video footage will follow.
