Darling Downs Aquathlon Results
Assumption College is proud to share the results from the Darling Downs Aquathlon held in Hervey Bay over the weekend. Chevota Hart competed in the 11-12 years age category. From all reports, the water was beautiful on Friday, with warm temperatures and clear skies. However, when it came time for Chevota to race on Saturday, it was pouring rain, humid, and the water was very choppy.
Despite this being her first time swimming in open water and feeling very nervous, Chevota didn’t let it stop her. She finished the race 3rd overall and 1st in her age/classification, earning herself a gold medal!
Congratulations, Chevota! We are very proud of your achievement!
