Sasseville Wins Silver At Nationals

Chatham’s Genevieve Sasseville won a silver medal at the Canadian Swimming Championships, Senior Nationals this weekend in Winnipeg.

The 16-year-old who represents the Chatham Y Pool Sharks won the silver medal in the 100m butterfly in a well fought race.

Sasseville led the race until the final few metres touching second at the wall with a time of 1:00:41.

This meet is one of the highlights of a swim season where Canada’s fastest and best come together in this open age category. The qualifying time standards are tough to make and even tougher to make the A final or podium.
