New wave of stars take up medal hunt

As the curtain comes down on six glorious nights at the Optus Aquatic Centre tonight, there is no shortage of talent vying for the spotlight.
Sprinter Riley Day, boxer Skye Nicolson and para athlete Madison de Rozario all make their first appearance at the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games (GC2018) today, hoping to emulates the achievements of a host of Team Griffith swimmers.
They’ll also happily follow in the footsteps of Bachelor of Business student and Bachelor of Journalism graduate Kelsey Cottrell who was superb in helping Australia to its first Lawn Bowls gold  of GC2018 yesterday. The win also took to 11 the number of gold medals won by Team Griffith athletes, with the total haul now 22.
Golden moment
