Jessica Davis, 16, from Lafayette, Sophia Kosturos, 18, from Orinda and Shelby Suppiger, 15, from Lafayette represented half of the Crow Canyon Country Club Sharks swim team, which won first place in the women's team competition at the 2018 Speedo Winter Junior Championships - West tournament.
The Sharks sent a small but elite squad of just six girls to Winter Juniors, which concluded on Dec. 8 and is the championship event for the western half of USA Swimming. The win was a first for the Crow Canyon Sharks and the first time since 2015 that a Bay Area swim club won the women's team competition. The Crow Canyon Sharks broke Bay Area records in three relays and one individual event along with setting two Winter Juniors records in individual events.
Kosturos is a senior at Miramonte High School and will swim for the UCLA Bruins next year. Davis and Suppiger are sophomores at Carondelet High School and Acalanes High School respectively. The team is coached by Ethan Hall and Joe Natina.
