State times aplenty

PERSONAL bests and state times were the order of the day for the Monbulk Marlins, who competed at the Ringwood Long Course Meet on Sunday, 9 October.
It was one of the most successful swimming meets in recent years for the club.
Ten swimmers attended, they achieved a combined total of 30 personal best times and an incredible eight state times.

“It was a fantastic day and we’re excited to see all the hard training paying off.”
