SNSW Junior Metropolitan Championships

Congratulations to Joseph Assi & Leo Zhu who competed at the Junior Metropolitan Championships swum at SOPAC last weekend.

Joseph achieved 2 PB’s in his 3 swims, gaining another Junior State Age qualifying time with his PB in the 100m Breaststroke. Joseph was also a Metropolitan finalist with a top-10 finish in the 200m Breaststroke taking 2 seconds off his time.

Leo contested 7 events at his first Metrops and achieved 100% new personal best times. Leo was just outside the top 10 with 11th place in his 100m Breaststroke, took a massive chunk off his 50m Backstroke to win his heat from lane 0, and achieved 6th place in the 200m Breaststroke, earning himself his first Metropolitan finalist ribbon.
