Go Back

Top points earner for the club was 11yr old Georgia Shaw, who, with points awarded for the top 6 places, (first place earning six points down to one point for sixth place) amassed an impressive 19 points. A win in the 100m  Individual Medley was followed with two second places in the 50m Backstroke and Freestyle races and a third place in the 50m Butterfly.

Lewis Clifford-Stephenson continued his return to form after his broken leg taking points in all of his four 11 year old races, a second place in his favoured Breaststroke was complimented with a third in the 100m Medley, fourth in the 50m Butterfly and fifth in the 50m Freestyle, only a card mix-up prevented him from a a full-house.

The other young lady to win an event was Jodie 'Joyce' Momodu who added to an impressive 1st place in the 10yr old Breaststroke with a 4th in the Freestyle, 5th in the Individual Medley and 6th place in the Butterfly. In the same age group Molly Scott won a silver cup for finishing second behind Jodie in the 50m Breaststroke.

Molly's sister Ellen competed in the 13 year age group and made significant contributions to the overall club points tally by claiming two third places and a fifth in the 100m Breaststroke, Butterfly and 200m Individual Medley respectively. Two other 13 year old girls grabbing top six places we Robyn Beadel and Georgia Clarke who managed a third place and fourth place respectively in the 100m Backstroke event.

Laura Andrews competing in the tough graded 15+ age group managed a fine performance in the 200m IM to take 3rd place, she also took 5th place in the 100m butterfly where 17 year old Julia Braybrooke finished 6th. Laura's younger sister Henny who was suffering from the beginnings of a cold decided only to swim one race, the tactic almost paid the ultimate divided where in a close final race she was touched into second place in the 14years breaststroke.

Another Andrews, no relation, did very well in her 14 year old butterfly. Lauren Andrews on her way back to fitness swam very well in the 100m Butterfly and finished exhausted but happy with a 4th place.

Completing the points tally were two young men who are starting register consistent result in the Butterfly. 11 year Oliver Lewis and 12 year Johnny Congdon managed a 5th place and a 4th place in the their respective 50m and 100m Butterfly events.

It would be remiss not to mention the other killerwhales, all of whom tried their best, with many finishing just outside of the placings'. Of the 132 Killerwhales swim 53 were in new personal best times.

Finally congratulations to Luton SC on a good display by their squad, a big thank you Hitchin SC for a well run gala (although some cushions for the spectators perches would be nice) and another WELL DONE to all of the killerwhales.
