In a showcase for the up and coming talent in Northeastern Ontario, nine members of the Sault Ste. Marie Aquatic Club put on podium performances at the Fred Rams B Championships in Timmins on the weekend.
Peter Olinger led the SSMAC field at the event with two first place finishes, three seconds and a third.
SSMAC rookie Theo Theodossiou also had a strong meet with a first place result along with two seconds and two thirds. Patrick Bonne, Cary Matthews and Alexandra Tracy each compiled a first, second and third place finish.
Adam Mossa recorded a second and a third place finish while Sara Matthews gathered a second place result. Rayne Fisher and Kelly Geiling also contributed with individual point scoring results.
Tracy, Cary Matthews, Sara Matthews and Geiling combined to win a pair of races in the girls medley and freestyle relays.
"This was a weekend for some of our up and coming swimmers to shine and they did," said SSMAC coach Nancy Day. "A few team members cut off significant time and there were improved results across the board. This success resulted in a couple of swimmers achieving A level times."
The Aquatic Club will be back in action February 13-15 for the Dave Kensit A Championships in Sudbury.
