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.
