Blueback trio to
swim at nationals

THREE TERRACE Blueback swim-
mers put in astounding performances in
Richmond to win berths in the Youth:
Nationals next June.

Marina Checkley, Garth Coxford and
Chris Kerman all shaved seconds off
their best times: to qualify for the the.
- national competition in Ottawa.

_. The Richmond meet closely mirrors
. the level of competition expected at t the
--provincials in March, /
_ Checkley, 14, won a silver medal in
100-metre backstroke with a time of
(1:10.53 — seven one-hundredths of a

second under the wire to qualify. She-

also qualified. for the Junior National

West tournament in the 50-metre
freestyle. .

“Coxford,; 15, hacked nearly four sec-
ands off his previous best time in the
200-metre freestyle to finish at 2:16.25
— well under the qualifying time of
2:17.80.

“He crushed the qualifying lime,”
said coach Mike Carlyle. ‘‘That- will
‘pul him at least the top 10 in Canada
when the rankings come out in March.

‘Based on. last year’s results he would -

have been 6th.”’

.He also qualified for the Junior Na-
tional Wests in the 400-metre IM.
“Coxford garnered two bronze and two
silver medals.
_ ‘He was finishing very very strong at
the end of the races,’’ Carlyle said, ad-

ding Coxford was coming from up
from fourth or fifth position to finish
second or third at the end,

Kerman, 14, took a silver and a
bronze, and whittled his 100-metre
backstroke time down. to 1:03.08 to
qualify for Youth Nationals. His 200-
metre back stroke time wasn’t that
sharp, but was good enough to qualify
for Junior Nationals West.

“Chris had an exceptional weekend,”’
Carlyle said. ‘‘We were very surprised

_by way he was able to race,”

Another strong finisher at the meet
was 12-year-old Tristan Brown, whose

quick times reeled in two golds, two

silvers and a bronze medal.
‘His 50-metre freestyle time will put

him in the top 15 in Canada at the end

of the short course season,’ Carlyle
predicted:

“He was really fast. And he was able
to finish his races strongly.””

Julie Vanderlee was one of three
Blucbacks tuming age groups. She
made first place in the consolation
finals in 100-metre freestyle,

“We. were really proud of the way
she finished off the meet and her swim-

ing as a 14 year old,’’ Carlyle said.

The 11-‘and 12-year-old boys relay

teams placed second in both the medley’

and freestyle relay events. Terrace team
members included Dylan Evans, Kyle
Narzt and Tristan Brown. .

. THE: CELTICS emerged as champions of
the. Terrace “Mini-Basketball - League by
edging the Magic 59-56 in the playoff final.

The Celtics were led by Robert Haugland,

a 6-foot-2 Grade 7 player from Clarence
Michiel Elementary School, ;
. “He's very, very talented -- the best
- player in the league,” said league organizer
Scott Armstrong. ‘He can basically score
at will.” -

Kyle Davis and Derek Matthews were the

leading scorers for the Magic, coming oh-
so0-close to victory.

But Armstrong said the best game of the
playoffs probably came earlier on when the
Magic upset the number-one Raptors —
who had previously been unbeaten in the
entire season,

That put two other strong players — Kyle
Leighton and Conrad Campbell — out of
the. final, and forced the Raptors to settle
for third place,
