A team of 24 Cannonvale Cannons travelled to Mackay to compete in the Pioneer LC Transition Meet last week.
Coach Ken Crittenden was very proud of all the swimmers and their efforts, especially the young Cannons in the 10 years and under brackets.
7 years and under: Eloise Chegwidden and Lucas Korosec won all their events and swam two personal best times. Eloise’s brother, Harry, aged 5, swam extremely well in his 25-metre Backstroke and Freestyle events. Indigo Harland, aged 6, thoroughly enjoyed her four races.
8 -10 years: Don Algie had a super weekend, coming home with eight gold medals and one bronze medal. Harris Delac “smashed” all his events, swimming personal bests in all his events and winning medals. His best swim was his 50-metre Butterfly which he swam in 1.04.66 - a 19.25 second personal best.
Declan Dichiera, Koa Harland, Isaac Pisaniello, Levi Smith, Ruby Harland, and Celeste Orenshaw were very competitive, taking out top places in their division.
Addie Sanders achieved third place for 200-metre IM and swam a fabulous time in her 50-metre Breaststroke.
Indi Smith swam brilliant times in all her events, achieving six personal bests. One of her best events was her 100-metre Backstroke, which she swam a 12.04 second personal best to earn first place. Nelson Malady and Thomas Ganter, both 10 years old, swam fantastic 200-metre Freestyles to earn first place in their respective divisions.
11 years and over: It is not easy to swim personal bests. So Jacob and Tiana Bell were delighted with their two personal best times and top placings.
Birthday Girl, Tora Delac had a very successful meet, which started with her first place finish in the 200-metre Freestyle.
She also swam an impressive 200-metre Breaststroke in 3.33.62. Jack Ganter set personal bests in his 50-metre events and swam a 13.76 second personal best in his 200-metre Freestyle.
Isabella Pisaniello swam fantastic times in her 100-metre Freestyle and 50-metre Backstroke. Holly Perrin and Remy Hedges, despite not achieving personal bests, were very competitive and earned top placings in their age groups.
