The Bulkley Valley Otters returned from a trip to Terrace last weekend with a podium finish to show for their efforts.
Six of the 14 swimmers that travelled to Terrace were in the running for high points honours in their division.
Gabby Correia came home with a gold medal, four others won silver and the sixth swimmer won a bronze.
“All the kids swam well and showed the great improvement we have made in the technical aspects of swimming,” Otters head coach Tom Best said.
“I am very satisfied with the way things are going with the training program and with the development in competitions.”
AAA provincial qualifiers (Cassie Horning-Wandler, Bailey Espersen and Tanner Espersen) used the meet as a tune up for the championships which will be in Kamloops at the end of this month.
Several swimmers barely missed qualifying for AA provincials which will be held in Chilliwack at the end of February.
They will have one final opportunity to qualify at an in-house meet in mid-February.
All the swimmers efforts contributed to the teams overall bronze-medal finish, Best said.
