The Simon Fraser Aquatics’ Sophia Brunoro and Dmitriy Lim set the pace, combining for six medals at the Canadian Age Group nationals in Calgary.
Brunoro topped the 14 year old girls’ 800-metre freestyle and five-kilometre open water race – the latter in a time of one hour flat. She also secured silver in 400m individual medley and 1500m free.
Brunoro, who trains at Central Park as well as Simon Fraser University, also finished just off the podium with fourth-place results in 200m fly and 400m free.
For Lim, the Burnaby swimmer placed second in the 15-year-old boys’ 200m butterfly, then combined talents with teammates Ivan Chiang, Brian Jung and Alex Woinoski in the 14-15 boys 800m free relay.
Demetra Sicoli collected a bronze in the 15-year-old girls’ 200m fly. Woinoski would round out the club’s individual medals with a pair: a silver in 200m free, and bronze in 1500m free.
A few weeks earlier, Brunoro and Lim gave a preview of their solid results by racking up top-three finishes at the B.C. Age Group championships.
Brunoro won the 800m free and placed third in the 200m breaststroke and 400m IM.
In his division, Lim proved first to the deck in the 200m backstroke, fly and 1500m free events. He also counted silver in 400m free and IM, and added a bronze in 100m fly.
