Katie Hohensee and Skye Griffith of the Kamloops Sunrays teamed up to finish 15th in the 16-18 duets category at the Canadian Open synchronized swimming championships in Victoria on the weekend.
Both girls also competed in the 16-18 solos, with Hohensee taking 18th and Griffith finishing 22nd.
In the junior duets, Carly Helgason and Naomi Woolverton finished 26th overall. Helgason was 24th in the junior solos, while Woolverton was 31st.
“I was very proud of our athletes,” wrote Sunrays head coach Morgan Smith, in an email. “It can be overwhelming being a small club at such a big meet, but I felt that the girls competed with the grace, strength and determination that we aspire to create in our athletes. They all put down strong performances under pressure and I was proud to stand beside them as their coach. We also saw many incredible synchro routines and are inspired and motivated to come back next season even stronger.”
Smith also noted that this was Helgason’s last competition with the Sunrays, as she will be heading off the university — while continuing to train in synchronized swimming — in the fall.
“We are sad to see her go as she has long been our club’s top performer as well as a leader and inspiration to many young athletes below her,” Smith wrote, “but we wish her well in her journey and look forward to seeing her again on the pool deck next year.”
