We sent out Seventeen 14 and under swimmers came out to the Winter Junior Olympic Championships this past weekend in Morgan Hill. It was our largest Winter group yet. We had 130 swims over the 3 day weekend, and I was ecstatic that we for the first time had four 9-10 girls qualified to compete, allowing for 9-10 girls relays! We also had nine 11-12 girls qualify allowing for A and B relays in every event! In the 10 and under age group, first time JO swimmer Aislinn Coombs went personal bests in the 50 free and dropped nearly 4 seconds in the 100 fly to finish with a 1:07! Liahla Fernandez went personal bests in the 50 and 100 free. Jilliyn Lucero and Jenika Tanjuakio both had full meets, with the 9 maximum events. Jenika made second swims in the 50 and 100 fly! Caitlin O'Neill went a new personal best in the 500 free in finals with a 5:35, and was a top placing finisher in the 50, 100 and 200 breaststroke events. Vincent Tejidor went personal bests in the 200 Fly, 50 Breast, 1650 Free, and 200 IM. This was the first JO meet for Emma Ronquillio, who dropped 2 seconds in her 200 free, and Camyle Rosa, who competed in 7 events over the weekend. This was the first Jo meet for all 3 of our swimmers in the 13-14 division for the 13-14 age group. Madesyn Ronquillio dropped time in almost every single event, and picked up a new FARW time in the 100 Breaststroke with a 1:11. She was also a top placing finisher in the 100 Backstroke and 100 Fly. Caleb Andres dropped the most amount of time over the weekend with nearly 40 seconds off in his 1650 freestyle. Jesse Russell-Cheung was right off personal bests in the 100 and 200 Breaststroke. Over the weekend we had 15 team records broken by 6 different swimmers!
