On Wednesday 29th March the MGSC swim team competed in the Southern Metro Regional carnival at MSAC in Albert Park. MGSC had 17 swimmers competing in 17 individual events and 3 4x50m freestyle relays. At the end of the carnival 15 of our 17 swimmers went home with a 1st, 2nd or 3rd place medal.
Gun Year 12 student, Tori E, completed her high school swimming career in style with a Silver medal in the U17 50m butterfly event. Tori has been an outstanding swimmer at MGSC over her 6 years, representing the school at the State carnival multiple times in individual and relay events. Tori trains and competes competitively outside of school, we all wish her the best of luck and encourage her to keep at it - good things will come! Cara J (Year 9) was our only Gold medalist. Cara won the 12-15 years 200m freestyle, the U15 50m butterfly, the U15 50m freestyle and the U15 50m backstroke, she also got pipped on the line in the U12-15 100m freestyle. Cara was also able to get a photo with one of her swimming heroes, Linley Frame, who is an ex-MGSC graduate and Olympic breaststroker. Our U13 and 16 4x50m freestyle relay teams came second with the U14 relay team coming in third place. Congratulations to all swimmers on their efforts in representing MGSC at this years swimming carnivals, good luck to Cara at the State carnival on April 26th, and congratulations to Tori E on a stellar swimming career at MGSC. Go Mentone!
