Congratulations to Tyler Smith and Evan Letkeman for qualifying for the World Trials in April at SCP. During a time trial on Saturday morning (March 16th), Tyler swam strongly in the 1500 metres to better the qualifying standard by 15 seconds in 16:21. Evan hung on in the last 50 metres of the 200 metre butterfly to slip under the standard at 2:08:24.
Nice job Tyler and Evan, and of course Coach Ron and Coach Peter.
Hey swim families, the 2013 World Trials are less than 3 weeks away. This is a great opportunity to see the best in Canada compete for a spot to represent our country.
