Three Cobar High School swimmers competed at the NSW Combined High Schools State Swimming Carnival at the Sydney International Aquatic Centre on Friday.
Raymond Jones had qualified to compete in eight events in the 17-19 year boys age group.
Raymond recorded new Personal Best (PB) performances in three events including taking 1.45 seconds off his 100 metres Butterfly to finish 21st, 2.16 seconds in 100m Backstroke for 22nd place and took 0.07 seconds off his 50m Freestyle swim to finish 25th in the state in his age group.
Henry Knight shaved more than six sec-onds off his previous PB in his 14 years boys 100m Butterfly event to place 23rd fastest in NSW.
Axel Fairfull, swimming in the 13 years boys 100m Butterfly, also recorded a PB taking 1.45 seconds off his time to finish a very creditable 20th in the state.
