AN AYR student was celebrating after he won a silver medal at a British University karate competition.

Sports development student Dylan Rush picked up the runners-up spot, as he reached the final of the men’s senior under 67kg Kumite competition.

The sporty student was joining classmates at the British Universities & Colleges Sport (BUCS) Scottish Conference Cup.

The university also had success in basketball, with the men’s team winning the tournament and the women securing a silver.

Congratulations to Dylan from the Ayr Advertiser Series team.
