Day 1 Results

Day one saw a little of everything but when all the dust settled, all three of the girls swam at least one best time, including a top 16 result.

Marisa had a less than stellar 1500 free but then bounced right back with a great 50 fly, taking over a second off her best time, swimming the event in 32.2. Aven also swam the 50 fly, placing 47th with a time of 30.64 and also making the qualifying time in the event for the first time.

In the 50 breaststroke, Kirsten swam a lifetime best time 34.83, placing 15th going into Saturday nights 50 breaststroke final. She was the 8th fastest 15 and under girl.

In the 50 backstroke, Aven swam a 32.5 and, while lacking a little front end speed, she had a very good second 25 and looks good for tomorrow's 100 backstroke.

In a new format this year, there is no separation between the 15 and 16 overs as has been the way it has been done in the past. With Kirsten's 15th place qualifying swim in the 5o breaststroke, it makes her 15th overall in Western Canada, regardless of age. If the girls are to make second swims this season, they will need to swim against all ages to do so.

Kirsten will swim the 50 Breaststroke B final on Saturday night.
