Some thoughts on Nationals

Technosport sent a large very dedicated team to Nationals. Each and every swimmer did their best according to their personal circumstances. The feeling on the deck with everyone cheering and encouraging each and every swimmer is what make ours such a great club. The relays were great fun with everyone swimming in many relays. A great job done by all.

Highlights of the meet

  • Louis David Bonneau did a Canadian record in the 200 IM
  • Two relay teams 160+ 4x 50 Med (Gerry Parrenti, Scott Dick, Tomas and Stepan Oliva) and the 120+ 4 x 50 Free (Gerry Parrenti, Louis David Bonneau, Scott Dick and Stepan Oliva) did Canadian records

  • There were 87 Tech records broken!!!! The women did 30 while the men did 57.
