I missed this meet last month, so I’m playing catch up.
Bainbridge Island Swim Club sent 31 swimmers to the Northwest Region Short Course Age Group Championships at KCAC in Federal Way. Alicia Campbell, Sam Alpaugh, Kevin Houseman and Aron Markow all won individual titles.
Markow set an age-group record in the 11-year-old division in the 50 breaststroke while Houseman set a record in the 12-year-old division in the 50 and 100 breaststroke races.
