O akville Aquatic Club head coach Lucie Hewitt Henderson was im pressed with the race, to say the least. "It was a very exciting race, he took off and held `under Canadian record pace' for give or take 1100 metres, fell off ju st a tiny bit and ended up missing the Canadian record by less than a second, but well under the (Olympic) standard. "It was a great race, ju st a super job. He hit his taper right on. He did an outstanding job and he was really ready to go." Having won the event at the last two nation als, Hurd was O akville's best Olympic hope going into the swimming trials but not the only one. Two Oakville Aquatic Club members, Julia Pomeroy and Anna Lydall, had previously hit the podium in their specialty events at various nationals. And in fact, in Sunday's second last event at the O lym pic trials, the w om en's 50 metre freestyle final, Lydall, like Hurd, had made the final eight for the cham pionship race. Lydall finished eighth in 26.90 seconds, a blink o f an eye behind Laura Nichols in first place at 26.06s. Lydall, who placed 5th at a world cup event in Edm onton last year, advanced through the sem ifinals (tied for seventh at 26.72 with Jessica Deglau) and through the prelim inaries (6th in 26.73 seconds). Her 100m race, on the other hand, was disap pointing, conceded coach Henderson-Hewitt, with Lydall a distant (for her) 23rd at 59.25s. But with her 50m cham pionship race appear ance, "there's some good light at the end o f the tunnel but certainly some work ahead of us in term s o f putting that 100m back where we had it before." The O akville Aquatic Club sent one other swimm er to a cham pionship final race, and it was Julia Pomeroy, who finished 7th in the 100m breast stroke (as already recounted in the Oakville Beaver).

She was "just off a lifetime best performance in the 100m," said coach Hewitt-Henderson. "She sees herself there in another four years, so that's good she would be able to recognize that this time it might not be her shot at it, but she was certainly seeing this as a much longer term project." In 200m breast stroke, Pomeroy finished 22nd in 2:41.94s. Also of special note, Laura Pomeroy (sister of Julia), back from a year-long injury which all but kept her out of action, made it to the semifi nals in the 50m freestyle.
