A LANGHOLM athlete, who receives funding from “Welcome to Langholm” Future Champions Awards, has been crowned national university
champion.
Lewis Bell, 19, won the title at the Scottish University and College championships at the Emirates Arena in
Glasgow.
It was a triumphant return for Bell who two weeks ago won a bronze medal in the Senior Scottish Athletics championships at the venue.
After progressing through his heat and semi-final, he ran a strong 200m final race, leading from the start and crossing the line three metres clear of second place with a time of 22.54 seconds.
