2016 FINA World Short Course Championships: Seven U Sports Athletes Reach the Podium at Home in Windsor FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 2016 FINA World Short Course Championships: Seven U Sports athletes reach the podium at home in Windsor Dec. 12, 2016 TORONTO (U Sports) – Seven current or former U Sports swimmers finished on the podium this week for Canada at the 2016 FINA Swimming Championships, in Windsor, Ont. Rio Olympians Katerin Savard, Kylie Masse, Sandrine Mainville, Yuri Kisil, Marcus Thormeyer, Hilary Caldwell, along with Kelsey Wog all left the championships with medals around their necks. Two former members of the Montreal Carabins captured gold as Savard helped Canada finish first as a part of the 4x200-metre relay team, while Sandrine Mainville won gold with the 4x50- metre relay team. Savard would add a silver in the 4x100-metre relay, to go along with a bronze in the 4x50-metre mixed relay, which also featured Mainville, and a pair of current UBC Thunderbirds in Markus Thormeyer and Yuri Kisil. Masse, the reigning U Sports Female Athlete of the Year who won a bronze medal in the 100- metre backstroke at the Rio Olympics, earned a silver medal in her specialty event, breaking her own Canadian record in the process. The Windsor, Ont., native and U of T Varsity Blue, who was swimming in front of friends and family in her hometown, also finished second in the 4x100-metre medley relay, sharing the podium with former Victoria Vike Hilary Caldwell. On the last night of competition, Wog, a rookie from the Manitoba Bisons took home silver in 200- metre breaststroke race. Canada finished sixth overall in the medal table with a total of eight medals (two gold, three silver, three bronze).

You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.

Once the Games are complete, the facility will be open to the community and students attending nearby U of T Scarborough — and will likely see an increase of pee in its pools. 2 NATIONAL POST GUIDE TO THE GAMES Other events at venue Diving, synchronized swimming, fencing, modern pentathlon, roller speed skating, sitting vol- leyball (Parapan Am) Transit options This trip would normally involve a lot of time on a bus, possibly multiple buses. Fortunately, there is a shuttle — the conveniently named Aquatics Centre Rocket, also known as the 194. It leaves from Don Mills Station (on Line 4) and is non-stop to the Aquatics Centre Loop, a short walk from the venue. Other options: the 198 U of T Scarborough Rocket ex- press bus from Kennedy Station (Line 2); the 95 York Mills from York Mills Station (Line 1); or the 38 Highland Creek bus from 3 NATIONAL POST GUIDE TO THE GAMES Scarborough Centre Station (Line 3) or from the Rouge Hill Go Sta- tion.

    Ontario Aquatic Hall of Fame Newsletter - January 2017 Congratulations Olympic & Paralympic Games- Ontario Swimmers Swimming on Olympic & Paralympic Teams Mike West has provided us some insight as an Olympian and voiced his feelings about this Summer’s Games: 2016 Olympic Team: “It was so exciting to watch the Canadian team swim with such confidence. Javier Acevedo (MAC) We’ve been through some lean years with respect to medals for Canadian swimmers at Ashton Baumann * the Olympics, it is so validating to see our swimmers get to the podium, and win gold (Ottawa) medals - way to go Penny. Dominique Bouchard (OAK) Overall I’m feeling really hopeful about the future of Canadian swimming - I get the Santo Condorelli (Kenora) sense that the team feels like they actually belong at the party. Mack Darragh (OAK) Kennedy Goss * (GGST) Hilary Caldwell said it so confidently after her 200 back - that reaching the podium was Audrey Lacroix (ANM) now “normal” for Canadian swimmers - and I think this is such a shift in thinking for our Brittany Maclean (ESWIM) swimmers. Sandrine Mainville (CAMO) When I swam in 1984 it wasn’t “if” you made the podium, it was where on the podium Kylie Masse (WEST/UT) you would be standing. And that is the feeling that I think is spreading through our Martha McCabe (TSC) Canadian team after Rio - our swimmers now have the confidence to not only compete Penny Oleksiak (TSC) with the best in the world, but to also contend for medals, including gold medals, at the Erika Seltenreich- international stage. Hodgson (GO) So excited
