McCulloch sprints to gold

Olympic bronze medallist Kaarle McCulloch has continued her strong form in the lead up to the 2013 UCI Track Cycling World Championships with gold at a world cup meet in Mexico over the weekend.

McCulloch teamed with compatriot Stephanie Morton in the women’s sprint to win gold, outlasting the ever-present Chinese duo, while also finishing fourth in the individual women’s sprint.

The world cup saw fellow NSWIS athletes Mitchell Bullen and Peter Lewis take bronze as part of the Australian team in the men’s team sprint, while Tirian McManus finished fourth in the men’s team pursuit.
