Three members of MAC competed, along with 30 other swimmers
from
South Dakota, in the Scotiabank Prairie Winter
International this weekend (Dec 3rd through the 6th) hosted at
PanAm Pool in
Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada. Reva Bork had a
great performance on Thursday night, placing 7th in the 800 meter
freestyle. Reva's time for that event broke the
17-Over
South Dakota state record by over twelve
seconds. Reva placed 7th in the 400 meter freestyle on Saturday,
also setting a new South Dakota state record for that event.
Tevyn Wadell earned a 5th place finish in the 200 freestyle, an
eighth place finish in the 11-12 50 backstroke, an 11th place
finish in the 100 freestyle, and a 13th place finish in the 50
freestyle. Karlie Brown placed seventh in the 100 meter
butterfly, and fifteenth in the 11-12 50 breaststroke. I was
very happy with all of the girls' performances, we had individual
best times in almost every event the girls swam this weekend.
Swimming against international competition in a prelim-final
format was a great experience for the younger girls, and Reva
really moved to the next level in this meet, we expect great things
from her in the future.
