JYAH Seymour-Poad led the way with two gold medals as the Noosa Swim Club members excelled at this year’s Queensland Winter Swimming Championships held last week.
Jyah won gold medal in the 16 years’ 100m and 200m Freestyle with huge personal best times of 50.4sec and 1min 50.9 sec.
Jyah also out-swam the 17 and 18 year categories in both these events, and won bronze in the 50m Fly and finished a narrow 4th in the 50m Freestyle.
Through this success Jyah has qualified for the Queensland State team to compete in the National inter-state meet in Canberra next month.
Shailee Finney placed in the top 10 in the 16 years 200m, 400m and 800m Freestyle events, again with three personal bests, while her sister Brooke continued the best times rolling with her efforts in the 18 years 50m and 100m Freestyle.
Talisa Brady placed in the 14 years 100m, 200m and 400m freestyle, and Ellie Bissiker added to the team success with wonderful swims in the 15 years 50m and 100m Backstroke.
Carl Vaughan sliced more than one sec from his 50m Backstroke in the 12 years event, and Ella Honeysett stood out when she moved from 46 to 43.3sec in the 11 years 50m Breaststroke.
Noosa Aquatic Centre has a successful squad program run by experienced Noosa Swim Squads coaches; John Rodgers (JR), Graeme Brewer (BREW) and Sally Evans (SALL).
