MacCormac crowned | THE KING of the Pool at the Alcan Invitational in Kitimat tumed out to be a battle be- tween Terrace brothers Jan and Danicl MacCormac. A sprint eliminator style event, the format saw five swimmers go in the first heat, the winner advancing to the next round against the next five. Which made an early draw just a little daunting because to become King (or Queen), swimmers had to keep win- ning their heats, By the time Jan MacCormac faced brother Daniel in the final, he had already swum three straight heats. And, said Blueback coach Mike Carlyle, it showed. ‘‘He was a little tired.’” Tired or not, Ian made a race of il, pushing his brother all the way, but Daniel’s extra zip out of the turns made the dif- ference and earned him the crown, , Recalling one of the feats of stamina achieved in the event, Carlyle pointed out Kitimat Marlin Queen con- tender reeled off an impressive slring of 12 heat victories be- fore eventually succumbing, Overall, Carlyle said the meet had produced encourag- ing results for the develop- ment level swimmers taking part, ‘*The percentage of best times was excellent,’ he noted, adding some took as much as 20 seconds off their previous best times. Carlyle said these were swimmers who'd taken a break over Christmas so hadn’t been back in full swing by the time the Prince Rupert meet had come around, The past 6-7 weeks had also been spent working on techni- que. ‘“You could tell the dif- ference,”’ Swimmers who hit personal bests in every event they swam included Thomas Demetzer, Justin Gillie — he slashed 15 seconds off his 100m Breast time — Megan Bowlers take step on road to stardom TWENTY SIX young bowlers head to Prince George this weekend for what they hope will be the first step on the road to a national championship berth.
