Metropolitan Results 13th December, 2009

Merrylands' team of five swimmers swam ten new personal best times at the NSW Metropolitan Championships, held at the Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre this weekend.

Brittany Johnson swam six new PBs from her seven events at the meet. Brittany's first event was the 100m Breaststroke where she took over 1 second off her PB to finish in 1:24.19. The swim set the tone for the rest of Brittany's meet, as she followed up with PBs in the 50m Breaststroke, 200m Individual Medley, 100m Butterfly, 50m Freestyle and 100m Freestyle.
In the 200m Individual Medley, she took over 3 seconds off her time while she took almost 2 seconds off in the 100m Butterfly.

Anthony Ventra and Peter Johnston both swam new personal best times in both of their events as they went head to head in the Breaststroke events. In the 100m Breaststroke, Anthony took 0.15 seconds off his time to touch in 1:17.74 while Peter took almost half a second off to finish in 1:19.09. In the 50m Breaststroke, Anthony took almost half a second off his PB, finishing in 34.81 as Peter took 0.04 seconds off his time to finish in 35.22.

Despite not swimming PBs, our other two swimmers at the meet, Amber Johnson and Timothy Tunks both still swam well, with some good split times.

Congratulations to all our swimmers for qualifying and on their performances at the meet. The full results are now available here.
