Clocking a time of 2:03.53 in the 200m IM, Neill took no passengers, finishing ahead of <strong>Thomas Hauck<\/strong> (All Saints GC) who scored silver in 2:04.59, and lane seven\u2019s <strong>Will Sharp<\/strong> (Nunawading) who nabbed bronze in 2:05.13.<\/p>\n<p>Lane seven made another appearance during the evening, with <strong>Jorja Otto<\/strong> (Bond) taking home the gold in the Girls\u2019 14-year 100m Backstroke from the same position. Charging to the wall in a time of 1:03.86, Otto beat out local hopeful <strong>Sophie Healy<\/strong> (Norwood) who touched in 1:03.98 for silver, and <strong>Madeleine Hardy<\/strong> (Trinity Grammar) who pinched bronze in 1:04.70.<\/p>\n<p>Carlile\u2019s <strong>Se-Bom Lee<\/strong> carried his momentum from previous nights into the fifth day of the competition, claiming the Boys\u2019 17-year 200m Backstroke in a time of 1:59.53. Outclassing his opposition, Lee was only 0.84 seconds off the Australian Age record and nearly three seconds clear of second place. Following behind Lee was <strong>Stuart Swinburn<\/strong> (Uni of NSW), who logged a time of 2:02.69 to secure silver, while <strong>Kyle Niesler<\/strong> (St Peters Western) came third in 2:03.22.<\/p>\n<p>St Peter Western\u2019s <strong>Jenna Forrester<\/strong> showed her skill and technique during the Girls\u2019 15-year 200m Freestyle. Taking the top honour from lane five in 2:00.36, it marked her third national age title after also snaring gold in the Girls\u2019 15-year 400m Freestyle and the Girls\u2019 15-year 400m Individual Medley. In a gallant effort, Wangaratta\u2019s <strong>Maggie Skewes<\/strong> (2:01.91) pinched silver and Norwood\u2019s <strong>Emily White<\/strong> received bronze (2:03.89).<\/p>\n<p>Putting distance between their competition in the Boys\u2019 17-year 400m Freestyle, <strong>Csongor Cellie<\/strong> (Kawana Waters) and <strong>Silas Harris<\/strong> (Northcote) had a traditional showdown in lanes four and five. It was Cellie who managed to grit his teeth and hold on, prevailing in a time of 3:52.83 to Harris 3:53.00. Finishing in third was <strong>Nick Jennens<\/strong> (Manly) in 4:00.34.<\/p>\n<p>With two bronze medals already hanging around her neck,<strong> Josephine Crimmins<\/strong> (Newmarket Racers) managed to score her first gold medal of the meet. The niece of Dolphin and former world record holder <strong>Tracey Wickham<\/strong>, Crimmins took the honours in the Girls\u2019 13-year 50m Freestyle with a time of 26.53. It was a tight tussle in the \u2018splash and dash\u2019 with <strong>Claveria Johnson-Tiumalu<\/strong> (St Peters Western) logging 26.58 to stand in second place on the podium and <strong>Collette Lyons<\/strong> (Kinross Wolaroi) placing third in 26.65.<\/p>\n<p>Showing her talent over four disciplines in the Girls\u2019 14-year 400m Individual Medley, St Peters Western\u2019s <strong>Ella Ramsay<\/strong> pulled away from the pack early to claim her third national age title of the meet. Cruising to the wall in 4:49.66 \u2013 a good six seconds ahead of her nearest opponent \u2013 Ramsay beat out fastest qualifier<strong> Elizabeth Dekkers<\/strong> (Newmarket Racers) who recorded a time of 4:56.39 and Trinity Grammar\u2019s <strong>Anna Lee<\/strong> (4:57.74).<\/p>\n<p>In the corresponding event for the 14-year-old boys, Nunawading teammates <strong>Evan Chee<\/strong> and <strong>William Petric<\/strong> went head to head in the middle lanes. With the crowd right behind them, Chee managed to claw his way ahead and achieve victory in 4:34.15. The spirited performance by Petric saw him hit the wall moments later in 4:35.45 to secure silver. Shaving 13 seconds off his qualifying time was Traralgon\u2019s <strong>Jordyn Cargill<\/strong>, who scored bronze from lane two in 4:38.38.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing was going to stop <strong>Gabriella Peiniger<\/strong> collecting her second title of the night, who after recording gold in the Girls\u2019 16-year 100m Butterfly, made it a double delight less than an hour later \u2013 triumphant in the Girls\u2019 16-year 200m Individual Medley. The MLC Aquatic product had tough competition from Manly\u2019s <strong>Charli Brown<\/strong> who came second (2:15.48) and Kawana Waters\u2019 <strong>Georgia Pendergast<\/strong> (2:16.58) who rounded out the top three.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Further Results:<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong><u>Girls\u2019 13-year 400m Freestyle<\/u><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Gold \u2013 <\/strong>Sienna Shepherd (Bayside) in 4:26.02<br \/>\n<strong>Silver <\/strong>\u2013 Sophie Martin (Brisbane Grammar) in 4:27.74<br \/>\n<strong>Bronze \u2013 <\/strong>Molly Walker (Southern Performance) in 4:28.48<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Boys 14-year 100m Backstroke<\/u><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Gold \u2013 <\/strong>Stone Ma (North-West Aquatic) in 58.92<br \/>\n<strong>Silver \u2013 <\/strong>Tane Bidois (Knox Pymble) in 59.25<br \/>\n<strong>Bronze \u2013 <\/strong>James Yu (Churchie) in 59.36<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Boys\u2019 15-year 200m Freestyle<\/u><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Gold \u2013 <\/strong>Maximillian Giuliani (The Hobart Aquatic) in 1:51.91<br \/>\n<strong>Silver \u2013 <\/strong>Samuel Short (Albany Creek) in 1:52.82<br \/>\n<strong>Bronze \u2013 <\/strong>Elliot Webber (Acacia Bayside) in 1:54.40<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Girls\u2019 16-year 100m Butterfly<\/u><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Gold \u2013 <\/strong>Gabriella Peiniger (MLC Aquatic) in 59.14<br \/>\n<strong>Silver \u2013 <\/strong>Kayla Hardy (Ginninderra) in 1:01.05<br \/>\n<strong>Bronze \u2013 <\/strong>Olivia Collins (St Peters Western) in 1:01.07<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Boys\u2019 16-year 100m Butterfly <\/u><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Gold \u2013 <\/strong>Kalani Skipps (TSS Aquatics) in 55.80<br \/>\n<strong>Silver \u2013 <\/strong>Troy Carlson (Sunshine Coast Grammar) in 55.87<br \/>\n<strong>Bronze \u2013 <\/strong>Charlie Hawk (Hunter) in 56.13<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Girls\u2019 15-year 200m Breaststroke <\/u><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Gold \u2013 <\/strong>Tara Kinder (DVE Aquatic) in 2:28.53<br \/>\n<strong>Silver \u2013 <\/strong>Emily Cobb (Acacia Bayside) in 2:34.72<br \/>\n<strong>Bronze \u2013 <\/strong>Nisha Kijkanakorn (Nunawading) in 2:37.05<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Boys\u2019 15-year 200m Breaststroke <\/u><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Gold \u2013 <\/strong>Hayden Wasiak (Chandler) in 2:22.19<br \/>\n<strong>Silver \u2013 <\/strong>Jack Dugandzic (Churchie) in 2:23.07<br \/>\n<strong>Bronze \u2013 <\/strong>Adriano Todoro (UWA West Coast) in 2:23.08<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Girls\u2019 13-year 100m Breaststroke<\/u><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Gold<\/strong> \u2013 Sophie Martin (Brisbane Grammar) in 1:13.48<br \/>\n<strong>Silver<\/strong> \u2013 Collette Lyons (Kinross Wolaroi) in 1:13.67<br \/>\n<strong>Bronze<\/strong> \u2013 Emma Rao (EC Waves) in 1:15.05<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Boys\u2019 14-year 800m Freestyle<\/u><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Gold<\/strong> \u2013 Robert Thorpe (Carlile) in 8:34.84<br \/>\n<strong>Silver<\/strong> \u2013 Bailey Krstevski (Wests Illawarra) in 8:37.37<br \/>\n<strong>Bronze<\/strong> \u2013 William Jordan (Brisbane Grammar) in 8:40.59<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Boys\u2019 15-year 800m Freestyle<\/u><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Gold<\/strong> \u2013 Samuel Short (Albany Creek) in 8:13.02<br \/>\n<strong>Silver<\/strong> \u2013 Joshua Staples (St Peters Western) in 8:19.91<br \/>\n<strong>Bronze<\/strong> \u2013 Ruben Rees (Miami) in 8:24.75<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>For all relay results, <a href=\"https:\/\/swimming.us3.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=2456b0397878737799dcbb35b&amp;id=5b55430540&amp;e=55440fa421\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/swimming.us3.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u%3D2456b0397878737799dcbb35b%26id%3D5b55430540%26e%3D55440fa421&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1555771543444000&amp;usg=AFQjCNHZnsCmiXP5119BVLWwADEI-xUSRA\">click here.<\/a><\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Day six action from the 2019 Hancock Prospecting Australian Age Swimming Championships kicks off tomorrow at 9am at the SA Aquatic &amp; Leisure Centre when swimmers take to the starting blocks for heats \u2013 finals take place at 6pm.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><i>The above press release was posted by Swimming World in conjunction with Swimming Australia<\/i><i>.
