We have two absolute superstars in the pool! Jaymes Roser and Josh Moore absolutely excelled in the Sunshine Coast Regional Swimming Carnival qualifying for the QLD State Championships in every event they swum in.

Jaymes swam in six events and qualified for the State Championships in every event and will also swim in two relays. He swam personal best times in every event so is really swimming well at the moment. Jaymes won the 50m Butterfly, 50m and 100m Freestyle he placed 2nd in 50m Backstroke, 3rd in 50m Breaststroke, 100m Breaststroke and 4th in 100m Backstroke event.

Josh swam in four events and also qualified for the State Champs in all his events and will also swim in two relays with Jaymes. Josh placed 3rd in 50m Butterfly, Backstroke, Freestyle and placed 2nd in 100m Freestyle.

Jaymes and Josh finished first and second in the 100m Freestyle which was a first for GCC and a very proud moment for our college showing that they certainly are two of the best 11 year old boy swimmers on the Sunshine Coast.

Caitlin Moore also swam well, winning and qualifying for the State Champs in the 400m Freestyle and 200m Backstroke. She swam state qualifying times in other events but numbers of qualifiers prevented her from representing the Coast in more events.

We are very proud of these swimmers as they have trained hard to gain these results. We wish them all the best for the State Championships and look forward to hearing their results.

Amy Trevan, Arno Mens, Carl Burgess, Chloe Turnbull and Jarod Keeble also competed and gained valuable experience at the carnival with some swimming personal best times.
