By Star Weekly

Broadmeadows table tennis players Miao Miao and Bundoora’s Jian Fang Lay will play for bronze in the team’s event, after defeating Wales 3-0.

Footscray Resilience Training Centre’s Jake Andrewartha won a bronze medal in the judo at the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games.

Andrewartha, one of six atheletes from the centre at the games, won bronze in the 100+kg event defeating Parikshit Kumar.

Mark Anthony, in the 90kg event, wasn’t so lucky losing his bronze medal match to Scotland’s Andrew Burns.
