HARD WORK yields results,
Terrace Bluebsck swimmers
proved that in no uncerlain terms
at the McDonald’s Ir-itational
meet in Prince Rupert.

Seven medals, five pool records
and host cf provincial
championship qualifying times
shuwed coach Mike Carlyle’s ob-
jectives are being achieved.

Early in the season he’d made it
Clear the club was not concemed
with winning meets,

The results of races at that stage
were not ultimately what counted,
he said, adding the plan was
steady improvement peaking in

the championships.

The Jan. 21-23 meet indicated
everything is going according to
that schedule,

Marina Checkley is a good ex-
ample. Taking overall goid in her
age group, the 12-year-old im-
proved her times in six of the
seven events she racedin. —

That included. breaking _ the
AAA qualifying mark in four
events and slashing three seconds
off the 11-12 years girls’ 200m
Back pool record.

Aimee Peacock and Tori
MacKenzie continued their tune
up for this weekend’s Senior

MEDALLISTS. Aimee Peacock (eft to right), Marina Checkley,
Jason Kumpolt, Chris Kerman, Kevin Andolfatto, Audrey Erb and
(nct shown) Tori MacKenzie helped the Bluebacks come away
from the recent Prince Rupert swim meet with seven medals.

Fast, faster, too fast!

BLUEBACKS ALWAYS want
to swim faster, but once in a
while they can overdo it,

Ask Stacey Parr and Jamie
Kerman,

Both broke the AAA barrier
in races at the McDonald’s In-
vitational «meet in Prince
Rupert and promptly
eliminated themselves from
those events at next month’s
AA championships.

Parr knocked herself out of
twe events while Kerman will
now have to sit out the 50m
Free.

Dylan Evans came close to
doing the same, scaring the

AAA time in both his 56m and
100m Back.

To make the trip to a provin-
cial championship, Blueback
coach Mike Cariyle explained,
swimmers have to qualify in
enough events to make it
worth while.

The trip down south is an ex-
pensive one just to get one or
two swims, he pointed out.

And the trio had already
made their quota. ‘We'd
bought their tickets,’ Carlyle
pointed out.

But a few quick scratches

ensured they can still anticipate

an active weekend.

provincials, also toppling pool
records.

Peacock lowered the mark in
both the 100m and 200m Breast
while MacKenzic sct a new
Rupert record for the 200m Back.

They finished with overall sil-

ver and bronze medalsin the girls “>

15 years and up division.

Chris Kerman provided the
other two record breaking per-
formances.in the Boys 11-12
years 200m Breast and 200m
Back, carving no less than nine
seconds off the latter.

He also came away with overall
gold in that division,

Bronze medals were collected
by Jason Kumpolt, Audrey Erb
and Kevin Andolfatto.

While obviously pleased with
those results, Carlyle highlighted
the performances of a number of
other Bluebacks.

Marcie Pritchard, 12, exploded

in the 200m Breast to slice more ~

thari 12 seconds off her previous
best.

100m Breast gave her enough
qualifying times to book a berth
al the AAs.

‘All her hard work paid off,’’
Carlyle noted.

Julie Vanderlee, another who
has been working hard over the
past few wecks, was also on fire,

Having just tumed 13 and
therefore moved up an age group,
she posted four AA times to
ensure she too makes the trip.

And Jan MacCormac picked up
two more qualifying times to
bring to 10 the number of
Bluebacks heading for the AA
Pprovincials.

That’s more than double last
year’s number, Carlyle pointed
out.

There’s been a similar improve-
ment at the AAA level, he added,
with seven heading for Kamloops
in March compared to just in '93,

Kevin Andolfatto used the
Prince Rupert to add three more
events to his championship fist
while Seth Downs camed a berih
by stroking to two more qualify-
ing times,

Not surprisingly, Carlyie sug-
gested “It looks good for the
-provincials,’’. .

Spare an evening for Kids

LOCAL BOWLERS will have cash on their minds
when they take to the alleys this Saturday.
But the focus will not be putting money into their

own pockets.

The event is B,C, Bowl for Kids night and the ob-
jective is to raise as much money as possible for the

Variety Club.

Over the eight years the money raising event has
been held, Terrace has established a reputation for

generosity,

Last year it contributed more than $2,000 to the
Variety Club’s work helping the physically and

mentally handicapped.
Bowl for Kids province-wide has raised close to a
million dollars in that eight years and organizers

hope to pass that mark with this year’s effort,

Here in Terrace, the night’s bowling takes an
eight-game, doubles tournament format.The entry is

$50 per pair and there will be prizes to be won. The

action gets under way at 7 p.m.
But the most important thing to remember is you

can’t play unless you bring along a Variety Club

pledge sheet,

Better still, more than one.
