Strong Championship Performance for Senior Swim Team

2/27/2017

The team capped off a very strong season with many outstanding performances at the University of Toronto Athletic Centre.

Robin Ahmed (‘17) led the team with three medals, including gold in the U20 50m Backstroke and bronzes in the U20 50m Butterfly and U20 200m Medley Relay. Mara Baker (‘20) found the podium twice, with a silver in the U20 50m Backstroke and bronze in the U20 200m Medley Relay.

Olivia Burdett (‘17) not only claimed silver in the Open 200m Freestyle event, but qualified to represent Greenwood at the OFSAA Swimming Championships from March 7-8 in Windsor. Her time of 2:20.13 made her one of only two racers in the event to advance to the provincial championships. Mara Baker also swam an OFSAA-qualifying time of 37.62 in the U16 50m Back.

Matt Sargeant (‘17) swam to silver in the U20 50m Backstroke, and our U20 Girls’ Medley Relay Team of Robin, Mara, Sadie Houston (‘18) and Sarah Scott (‘18) took bronze.
