Hamish Kerr has continued to blaze a trail for Kiwi sport as he won the Commonwealth Games high jump gold medal in Birmingham.
With Maddi Wesche claiming bronze in the shot put, it was a fine morning (NZ time) for the Kiwi athletes.
New Zealand already has a famous tradition in women's shot put. The Great Vals - Adams and Young - have won three Commonwealth golds each.
