Two more trips to the finals for PCS swimmers on Day 2 of the Age Group Nationals.

Lauren Crisp made the finals in Montreal going in 8th and had a great swim going 33.30 finishing 5th in the 12 & U age group, with probably one of the best 50 Back times in the country for an 11 year old.

Ryan Howe swam to a 3rd place finish in the 15 yo 50 Back tonight going 28.69 for the Bronze ! 

Day 1 of the Canadian Age Group Nationals saw several medal and personal best performances by PCS swimmers. Here are summaries of the preliminaries and finals from Coach Rod.

The second day of Senior Nationals was a more relaxed day for our competitors; only MacKenzie Downing and Rachael Newman competed, in the 100 Free, not a main event for either of them.  Downing made the C final with a time of 58.38, but opted not to swim it in preparation for the 100 Fly tomorrow. 

Tomorrow brings a day of big races for the UVPCS swimmers, with the 200 Back, a main event for both Stefanie and Nick, and the 100 Fly, in which MacKenzie and Rachael will be competing.

After two impressive races over the past two days, Richard Weinberger drew his time at the World Championships to a close with a stellar performance in the 5km today.  The race consisted of 52 men, and took just under an hour for the main pack to complete.

Senior Nationals began today in Point-Clare, Quebec, and UVPCS had MacKenzie Downing, Nicholas Sinclair, Stefanie Schmidt, and Rachael Newman competing.  Both Nick and MacKenzie are currently in the midst of training for the FISU Games in August. 

In heats, MacKenzie Downing swam both the 50 and 200 Fly, snagging a spot in the final in both events.  MacKenzie came 10^th in the 50 Fly with a time of 27.96, and won the bronze medal in the 200, clocking in at 2:14.02.
