Hours into the Age Group National Championships in Calgary, two Chatham Pool Sharks had already advanced to the finals of their first events.

Genevieve Sasseville will compete in the finals of the 100 metre butterfly, where she enters ranked third.

Wallaceburg’s Madison Broad, who has more than a dozen age group national medals to her name in recent years, not surprisingly will also swim in the finals of the 200 metre backstroke.

David Tran is also representing the Chatham Club in Calgary this week.

Brendan Van Herk is swimming on behalf of the Blenheim Blast and expects to add to his medal haul. Port Lambton’s Shona Branton is representing the Sarnia Rapids.
