Among his group of 18 campers (KSC has more than 200 swimmers registered in Canada), Mike said there are two swimmers — Matea Gigoviz, and Molly Fleming — who are close to qualifying for the Olympic Summer Games. They’ll be swimming in the meet on Saturday that starts at 9 a.m. at the YMCA (Tom Tannery of the YMCA said he’ll be seeing TGI at the Kaua‘i United Way Mahalo luncheon on Thursday at the Outrigger Kaua‘i Beach Resort).
Coach Mike said following the Saturday meet, there are three swimmers, including Gigoviz and Fleming, who will be looking to qualify during the Canadian Olympic Trials that will take place in May.
