Tigers swimmers bring home some hardware from CIS championships

Competing in the CIS Swimming Championships at Laval University from Feb. 26-28, both men’s and women’s Tigers teams finished in the top ten. The women’s team finished in fifth place with 342 points and the men came in sixth with 239 points.

The University of Toronto Varsity Blues were the winners in both divisions.

The highlight of the opening day of the competition for the Tigers was when AUS female swimmer of the year Phoebe Lenderyou won a bronze medal in the 50m back event with a time of 29.27.

The Tigers were able to bring home more hardware on day two. Katie Webster raced her way to a bronze medal in the 400m free event, clocking in at 4:22.69.

Webster doubled up on bronze on day three. She followed up her great 400m free performance with another one in the 800m free event placing third with a time of 9:01.62.
