Arina Yugova expresses her joy over securing the victory in "Victory" competition.
In the heart of Yakutsk, the North-Eastern Federal University named after M.K. Ammosov took center stage in the track and field relay for the city's esteemed "Yakutia" newspaper's prizes. This year, amidst the bustling crowd, the SVEFU-1 team shone brightest, grabbing the victory in the "Victory Relay." Their triumphant run was no flukes; these athletes have a rich and robust history of excellence in this prestigious competition.
Enter Coach Aina Yugova, a dedicated physical education teacher at SVEFU, who masterfully guides the future champions. For the relay, she handpicked ten of the university's brightest stars – six boys and four girls – each with an impressive track record. Among them is none other than the republic champion in the 400m run, Jana Berezitskaya, a 2nd-year student gracing the halls of the Institute of Physical Culture and Sports. Saina Ivanova, a consistent medalist in multi-events, is another pride of the SVEFU-1 team.
So, what did it take to bring home the trophy? First, Yugova strategically assembled the fastest runners for each stage, ensuring a steady stream of pace-setters. As the first stage unfolded, they were trailing in sixth place, but the power of team spirit and sheer talent propelled them forward. In the critical first stage, Stanislav Savvinov probed the field with determination, while the indomitable Kirill Romanov wrapped up the final, shortest stage with a neck-breaking sprint. The other teams simply couldn't keep up, and the SVEFU-1 team crossed the line victorious.
