The swimmers all achieved some incredible times against the tough competition of clubs from across Devon.

The times for the four swimmers were: Carys Lilley; 50m backstroke 37.23; 50m breaststroke 39:19, 50m front crawl 33:08, 100m breaststroke 1:27:43; 100m individual medley 1:19:24. Tiegan Chipping: 50m backstroke 38:79; 50m breaststroke 44:92, 50m front crawl 32:81. Erim Marshallsay: 50m backstroke 43:63; 50m breaststroke 44:09.
