South Australian girls post impressive testing results
AFTER revealing the top South Australian boys who tested in their respective pre-season testing event, we have released the top five performers in each test for the South Australian girls, with some terrific results. Of the 45 players invited to test, 31 girls were able to complete at least one test, with 14 unavailable for various reasons.
The standout performer by far was South Adelaide’s Hannah Munyard who finished top two in every test, an impressive feat for any young athlete. The top-age prospect played with South Australia at the AFL Women’s Under 18 Championships last year, and has been a key member of the Panthers so far in season 2019. Aside from Munyard, Woodville-West Torrens’ Tesharna Maher took out the standing vertical jump and 20m sprint, while Sturt’s Isobel Kuiper took out the Yo-yo test.
The Panthers and Eagles tested particularly well across the day, with South Adelaide having four players record a top five finish, and Woodville-West Torrens having three. Central District also had three different players finish in the top five, while North Adelaide and Glenelg had two, and Sturt had one. Below are the top five in each test completed.
