Vignesh Nadar of Don Bosco HS (Matunga) and Swanandi Sawant of Udyachal High School (Vikhroli) hogged the limelight on Day Two of the 129th MSSA Annual Inter-School Championship, at the University Sports Pavilion, Marine Lines, on Tuesday.

The lanky Vignesh, 15, who guided Don Bosco to the MSSA boys under-16 basketball title last Saturday, set a new meet record in the boys under-16 high jump. He cleared a height of 1.80 metres, but it was below his personal best of 1.89m, achieved during the National Junior Athletics Championship in Coimbatore last month.
