In a meet wrought with some of the best age group swimming in all of Canada, SLSC made its presence known this past weekend. 8 swimmers participated in the Ontario Jr Provincial Championships this past weekend. Two swimmers came away from the meet as Provincial Champions. Kasey Thompson won the 13 year old girls 100 butterfly with a great time of 1:05.22. Kelly Hotta won the 15 year old 100 Freestyle in a blistering 57.21. Other medalists at the meet included Nina Kucheran in the 10 & under 50 breast with a Silver medal.

Kelly Hotta was recognised during the weekend getting two different awards. The first was being the recipient of the Team Aquatic Supplies scholarship for being the highest performing swimmer in NEOR last summer with the highest average in school! Not bad, FAST and really SMART!! The second recognition came from being ranked in the top 8 performances of all the 14 year old girls last summer in all of Ontario. Congratulations Kelly!!
