The Chatham Pool Sharks brought home 49 top 8 finishes, including 27 medals, at the Hollandia long-course meet held this past weekend by the London Aquatic Club.

“They were really swimming at their best. I was so impressed with the effort they all put in and the times they posted. We walked away with so many personal bests and several new regional, provincial, and national time cuts,” commented Head Coach Kyle Pinsonneault.

Pinsonneault further noted, “For clubs like ours, long course season is a bit tougher. Without having a long course pool to practice in the swimmers really do have to swim their best to make a top 8 finish.”
