Twenty-six swimmers from Orinda Aquatics recently attended the 2016 NASA Showcase Classic in Clearwater, Florida. The meet is one of the fastest 14 and under competitions in the country and the OA swimmers were up for the challenge.
The 13-14 Boys relay of Max Cruz, Owen Wardy, Christian Markey, and Will Nagle broke 4 Pacific Swimming records: 200 medley, 400 medley, 200 Free and 400 Free relays. The boys won all four very exciting relays and gained many valuable points for the team.
On the individual side, we had top ten finishes from Emilia Barck (9), Henrik Barck (11), Max Cruz (14), Emily Hamilton (12), Sarah Hamilton (14), Channing Hanley (13), Sophie Lurie (13), Christian Markey (14), Margaux McDonald (14), Will Nagle (13), Maddie Smith (14), Maya Supran (13) and Owen Wardy (13).
Special Congratulations to Emilia Barck, Will Nagle and Max Cruz for finishing in the top five for individual points.
