Final Day of the Santa Clara International

There was some great swimming last night. Although she didn't quite manage to beat the Aussies, Hilary Caldwell did manage to win the bronze medal in the 200 backstroke, Julia Wilkinson was 5th. Alec Page finished 6th in the 400 IM.

The final day of competition in Santa Clara will have Julia Wilkinson competing in the 100 back, and will finish up with Alexa Komarnycky also competing in her Olympic event, the 800 free. Even though they are in the middle of some hard training, it will be exciting to see where they are at. This is the line up of Island Swimming/VAS Swimmers competing today.
