Inconnu Swim Club Competed at Alberta Spring Championships

FORT ST. JOHN, B.C. – This past weekend Owen Lang, Cameron Louie, Eric Louie, and Griffi  n 
Ternier-

Smith from the Inconnu Swim Club competed at the Alberta Spring Championships in Edmonton, AB. 
There were over 500 swimmers competing and it was a fast swim meet with many records set. All four 
swimmers competed in 7 events and 2 relays each over the 4-day event.

Owen Lang took home 3 medals; bronze in the 50 freestyle, and the 100 freestyle, plus silver in the 
50 butterfy. Also, to his credit, he made the A finals (top 10) in every swim this weekend. “Owen 
is a dedicated swimmer and works very hard. I’m happy he’s seeing these results because he deserves 
it,” Coach Norah Vogan said.

Cameron Louie also took home a bronze medal in 50 freestyle. It was an exciting race where he was 
placed on the outside lane. “In short races like the 50 freestyle, all you need is a lane to win,” 
said Coach Norah. “Cameron took his opportunity and finished strong. That’s called outside smoke.”

Eric Louie had a solid swim meet where he got another Western Swimming Canada qualifying time in

the 100 butterfy; adding to his now four qualified races. He will be swimming in April at the 
Western Championships in Edmonton.

Griffi  n Ternier-Smith had a strong swim meet where he dropped more time in his 50 freestyle, 200 
freestyle, and 400 freestyle. “Griffi  n had tough competition! There are lots of nationally ranked 
swimmers in Alberta and they gave him good competition.”

In three weeks both Griffi  n Ternier-Smith and Eric Louie will be competing in the elite Western 
Championships. “This meet hosts all of Western Canada’s swimmers, 14 years and older, who have

made the qualifying times.” said Coach Norah, “It’s going to be a fast swim meet”.
