2012-2013

Day One of competition at the 2013 Swim BC AA Short Course Meet saw PCS swimmers on the podium 6 times and many personal best times being set. We have a relatively small team of 11 swimmers competiting at the meet, taking place in Surrey this weekend.

Here is the summary of the podium and top 8 finishes:

UVPCS swimmer Aimeson King had a busy past week, competing in 3 events in South America. 

In the first 10km, which took place on January 26th in Santos, Brazil, Aimeson had what Coach Ron Jacks described as the race of his life.  King finished in 16^th spot, beating out five Olympians, and was only 27 seconds behind the winner.

King then competed in a sprint event in Viedma just before the World Cup, and had another strong race, coming in 7^th.
