Radley's men stepped up their promotion challenge in Southern League Division 3 with a superb victory at Woking.

Rocked by injury, Radley, in just their second season, edged out Newquay & Par by 11 points to go third in the table, with the top two gaining promotion.

It means their last match in Salisbury will be a must-win encounter if Radley are to gain a place in Division 2.

Radley travelled to Surrey with only nine fit athletes, two of them being veterans.

Team captain Steve Wren led the way, breaking his own club record in the triple jump with a tremendous leap of 12.51m.

He enjoyed a clean sweep in his events, also posting victories in the long jump, high jump and the 200m as well as being a member of both winning relay teams.

Ben Owen also had a good day, despite competing with a foot injury.

He won the B string long jump, and also maintained his unbeaten season in the 100m and 200m.

Under 17 Dan Griffiths came second in both his 800m and 1500m races, and also stepped in to fill a gap in the 400m, finishing third in the B string race.

Matt Pearce came joint second in the pole vault, fourth in the 3000m steeplechase and knocked a massive 1min 11secs off his personal best in the B string 5000m.

Pete Watson won the B string 110m hurdles and was third in the A string 5000m.

He also won the shot put and the B string triple jump with a leap of 10.72, before badly damaging tendons and ligaments in a heavy fall.

Dan Pearce took the B string high jump and 110m hurdles, and also picked up third place in the 400m hurdles, before he too suffered an injury.

Paul Jegou, in the A string 800m and 1500m finished second and first respectively, and also stepped into the breach in the winning 4x400m relay team.

Richard Twine was second in both the A string 400m and the B string 100m, while Craig Spires won the pole vault with 2.80m.

Result: 1 Radley 141pts, 2 Newquay & Par 130, 3 Basingstoke 124, 4 Fleet 95.
