Kerala’s Sreenith Mohan scripted a new national record in high jump in the Jio 30th junior National athletic championship here on Friday.
Wearing spikes of two different colours, Sreenith, in the u-20 segment, cleared a height of 2.18m thus creating new national and meet record. “One spike belongs to previous national record holder Nikhil, who is my good friend and the other belongs to my coach’s best student who is a word-class jumper. I wear them to inspire me,” said Sreenith, whose personal best is 2.20m.
