Molly Scott, Gina Akpe-Moses, Ciara Neville and Patience Jumbo-Gula celebrate.
President of Ireland Michael D. Higgins has personally congratulated the Irish U20 4x100m relay team following their silver medal-winning run at yesterday's World Championships in Finland.
Dundalk's Gina Akpe-Moses, of Blackrock AC, and Patience Jumbo-Gula, who is a member of St. Gerard's AC, teamed up with Molly Scott and Ciara Neville to deliver second place in a national record time of 43.90. They finished narrowly behind Germany and a place in front of the Great Britain team.

Their hard work and remarkable achievement is a cause for celebration for all those who support Irish athletics and Irish sport.”
