Commonwealth Games appearances (overview)

In 2010, Nauruans won two medals, a gold and a silver, both in weightlifting. Yukio Peter won gold in the men's 77 kg category, setting a new Commonwealth Games record by lifting 148 kg in the snatch and 185 kg in the clean and jerk – 333 kg in total. In the men's 105+ kg, Itte Detenamo won silver. He lifted 179 kg in the snatch and 218 kg in the clean and jerk – 397 kg in total. This equalled the total lifted by Australia's Damon Kelly, but Kelly won gold by virtue of a lesser body weight, leaving Detenamo with silver.[5]

Medalists
gollark: I think they have to use the same application timings and suffer similar weirdness with prediction, since most undergraduate applications go through one central system.
gollark: It's kind of stupid but cannot practically be changed now.
gollark: Anyway, universities just have to base it on predicted grades, past grades, and a "personal statement" and "reference". So you get an "offer", usually saying "if you get X grades you can go to this university", and have to hope that you match that in the exams.
gollark: Yep!
gollark: Stay here, it would be inconvenient and expensive not to.
