Day 1 Finals - Christmas Cracker

What a great night! To start things off, Carter Gorjeu, who was alternate in both the 200 free and 200 IM, got a chance to swim both because of a late scratch of a sick swimmer. Carter was able to place 7th in the 200 free and 8th in the 200 IM, swimming the IM in 2:58 for his first time under 3:00 and the swim of the night, voted on by his fellow teammates.

Alec Page was our other finalist last night and placed 2nd in the 200 IM with a time of 2:39, his first time under 2:40. Another excellent swim.

Last night Kirsten Rowbotham broke her very first 13 - 14 girls club record with a clocking of 36.43 in the girls 50 breaststroke. Jared Calder broke 26 in the 50 free for the first time with a time of 25.79 and Brock Hoyt had a very strong swim in the 5o breaststroke with a 33.03 clocking.

Other great swims last night included Marisa Gorjeu's 50 breaststroke (40.2) and two more club records for Carter Gorjeu, pushing his total for the weekend to 6. More results to follow.
