Three local Waves swimmers raced in Calgary this past weekend with the possibility of qualifying for provincial championships on the line.

The three swimmers split seven podium finishes and 15 top-10 swims, which made for a lot of swimming. All three were within striking distance of qualifying for this week’s upcoming meet, with two possible ways of qualifying: They could reach two championship time standards or win an event at this trials meet.

William Miller had two podium finishes, one in the 200m back where he finished second. His teammate Johnny Marshall also finished second in two events. Karsten Senft topped the podium in the boys 16 and over 100m free and will be joining teammates in Edmonton this upcoming weekend.
