A team of 12 swimmers from Cobar Swimming Club competed at the Macquarie Yabbies Swimming Carnival in Narromine on Sunday.
Henry Knight was the Cobar club’s shining star finishing with four first places, two seconds, three thirds and he also claimed a first place in the medley relay at the end of the day with Cobar team mates Harry Cousins and Nick Hodges (along with William Letham from Mudgee Indoor Swimming Club).
Other results from the day included: Clair Cousins—2nd in 50m backstroke and 3rd in 50m butterfly and 50m breaststroke; Ashley Cousins—2x 3rd places; Isabelle Gillette—1x 3rd; Molly Fitzsimmons (the Cobar club’s youngest swimmer who was competing at her first away carnival)—2nd in 25m backstroke; and Harry Cousins—2nd in 200m backstroke and 3rd in 100m backstroke (proving his training in backstroke is paying off).
Also attending was Thomas Knight (at his first inter-town carnival), who finished with some great personal best (PB) times and joined in the medley relay to help the club form a team.
A number of the team members recorded PB’s at the carnival.—contributed
