LAURA Patterson celebrated the news of her second selection for the Great Britain junior squad with her second club record in two weeks.

But while the Wycombe Phoenix athlete's selection came for pole vaulting, her record came in her third event, the triple jump.

In a remarkable sequence, Patterson notched up her first ever leap over 11 metres soaring out to 11.10m. She also retained both her pole vault and long jump titles on a day when Wycombe excelled, capturing many of the Bucks AA county championship titles on offer.

A second club record was set in the under-17 women's hammer where Catherine Parkinson launched the 4kg weight out to 20.58m.

The senior women's 400m featured the best contest of the day as sisters Lori and Alison Thorne battled all the way to the line. Phoenix athlete Lori set the early pace and held off Alison (Windsor, Slough & Eton) at the line with a time of 55.1sec.

The combined senior, junior and U17 women's squads had an exceptional day taking 17 of the 21 titles for which they entered athletes.

Nicola Sanders claimed an impressive double with surging wins over both the 100m and 200m.

Sarah Jarvis also netted a brace of golds striding away from the field in the 1500m having already displayed her versatility with a win in the high jump.

Training partner Hannah Cunningham did just enough to take the 3000m title while Clare Khagani (Dr Challoners High) set a competition best of 27.64m to win the discus title. Jo Nightingale remained consistent with yet another leap to 2.80m in the pole vault.

For the seniors, Leanne O'Callaghan took both sprint titles while Sue Aperghis and Rachel Quinn both took gold in the 1500m and 3000m.

Jo Wade kept up her sequence of over 30 metre throws with a winning javelin effort of 31.57m.

Best of the male performances came from Jermaine Joseph who won the 100m in 12.0sec. Also recording a track win was Matt Crowley in the 2000m steeplechase.

Adam Bowd improved on his best triple jump no less than four times in his series of six jumps, his best being 12.43m to win the senior title.

Anne Tulloch, made a critical breakthrough in the long jump, breaching the five metre barrier for the first time, reaching 5.05m and the county title.

Ian Parkinson made his debut in the British Universities Championships representing Loughborough University with a good effort of four metres in the pole vault to finish sixth.
