Team Scotland Target More Medals

Team Scotland will be hoping to add to their medal haul today after a glittering second day at the Commonwealth Games put them in third place in the medals table. The host nation secured three golds and two bronzes yesterday, taking their total to 15, behind England and Australia which each have 32.

Daniel Wallace secured Scotland's third pool gold when he powered to victory in the 400 metres individual medley at Tollcross International Swimming Centre in Glasgow. Scots also won golds in cycling and judo and bronze in swimming and judo. Wallace 21, bellowed "for freedom!'' after touching home to claim gold. It was a moment of redemption for the University of Florida student, who feared at one point this year that he would be axed from Team Scotland after he was arrested in the US for urinating on a police car and suspended by his American swim team. He said: "I just yelled at the top of my lungs 'for freedom' because being here, the home crowd has really brought out the Braveheart and Scot inside of me and I just soaked up the moment.'' His win came after Team Scotland's Hannah Miley won the gold medal in the women's 400m individual medley on Thursday, and Ross Murdoch beat teammate Michael Jamieson to secure gold in the 200m breaststroke. There was more misery for Jamieson in his 100m breaststroke semi-final yesterday when he slumped to fifth behind winner Murdoch with a time of one minute 02.04 seconds, to leave him 11th overall and out of tonight's final. Murdoch's victory in the first semi saw him qualify second to England's Adam Peaty, fastest with a time of 59.16 seconds. Scotland's first medal of the day at Glasgow 2014 yesterday went to para-cyclist Neil Fachie and Craig MacLean who took gold in the men's 1,000 metres time trial B2 tandem at the Sir Chris Hoy velodrome. Partially-sighted Fachie and partner MacLean were roared on by a capacity crowd including Hoy himself as well as comedian Billy Connolly, and powered to victory in one minute 2.096 seconds. As they completed their lap of honour around the track, Fachie unfurled a Saltire and held it aloft - seemingly hoisting it in the direction of the man who lent the velodrome his name, with Hoy clapping his approval from a television gantry. Sarah Clark won Scotland's second gold of the day in the judo under-63kg division when she beat Helene Wezeu Dombeu of Cameroon. The 36-year-old Clark - a former European champion who won silver when judo was last in the Commonwealth Games at Manchester 2002 - claimed a third judo gold for Scotland following the Renicks sisters' success at the SECC venue yesterday.
