SWIMMING
THIS WEEKEND AT SACS
Daniel Swanepoel has returned from the South African Senior
Nationals in Durban, where he achieved his personal best times
in all the events and broke his own Western Province records in
the 100m and 200m breast stroke. Daniel also made it into the
final for the 200m breast stroke where he found himself
swimming against Cameron van den Burgh. He placed fifth in
this race in a personal best time of 2:19:80 which places him fifth
in South Africa for the 200m men’s open breast stroke.
