The host North Bay Titans had 52 swimmers, ages 6 to 16, take part in NEOR Development Meet #2 on Saturday, December 2nd and Sunday, December 3rd.

Ten year old Julia Rivet won all six of her events, with multiple first place finishes from Owen Baas, Robby Baas, Leah Dawson, Nikita Ouellette and Drew Stephenson.

In fact, the Titans coaches say they had a number of swimmers rise to the challenge of trying out new and longer events, including 100m, 200m and even some 400m races.
The coaches were very impressed with how well everyone did throughout the weekend, pointing out the results and personal best times are proof of the great effort they saw put forward by all swimmers.

Titans officials also send out a huge THANK YOU to all of the parent and family volunteers.

They say these meets are not possible without them, and every effort put forth helps to make the meet run a bit more smoothly.

Next up, thirty Titans are getting ready for the Ontario Team Showdown December 15th to 17th in Brantford, Ontario.
