Lachlan wins campus sports star award

Brisbane Water Secondary College Umina campus student Lachlan Braddish has won the 2016 NSW Surf Lifesaving State under 14 swim championship.

He was also third in the board race and eighth in the ironman competition.

He has been the surf race champion for six years in a row.

He was defending his ironman title this year but torn ligaments in his foot slowed his progress.

School principal Mr Brent Walker said: "Lachlan was awarded the Umina campus Sports Star of the Week in March not only for his prowess at the beach and in the pool but also for his all-round commitment to his studies across all subjects."

Lachlan said: "You have to train hard but you must make sure you enjoy your sport.

"I love the atmosphere."
