Kelly Aspinall and Brittney Harley conquer gold medals – 2012 Canadian Summer Nationals

Kelly Aspinall and Brittney Harley conquered gold medals of the Men’s 50m butterfly and Women’s 200m freestyle respectively at the 2012 Canadian Summer Nationals at the Edmonton Kinsmen Sport Centre.

Aspinall continued his nerve-wrecking pace throughout the discipline and proved his mettle for the crown of the discipline by clocking a time of 24.23 seconds.

The champion was followed by Coleman Allen, who remained 0.33 seconds slower form his former finisher and made his way to the finishing wall for second position by producing a time of 24.56 seconds.

Allen was chased by Mike Smerek, who remained 0.38 seconds away from securing second position of the shortest butterfly discipline and ended third by submitting an effort of 24.94 seconds.

Subsequently, Smerek remained 0.07 seconds faster from his following swimmers, Kourosh Ahani of RHAC Predators and Ryan Thornley, who tried hard to surpass each other over the finishing end but failed to do so.

The duo failed to escape each other on the finishing end for fourth position and settled on the wall as fourth position holders by reporting an identical time of 25.01 seconds.

Following that, Harley dominated the Women’s 200m discipline. She continued her smothering efforts in the playoff and stepped on the medal rostrum for gold medal by clocking a time of 2 minutes and 02.37 seconds.

The gold medallist was trailed by Sherry Liu, who stayed 0.24 seconds behind and reached the finishing wall for second position by posting a time of 2 minutes and 02.61 seconds.

The silver medallist was chased by Sarah-Lee Hevey, who was 0.06 seconds behind and occupied bronze medal of the discipline by producing a time of 2 minutes and 02.67 seconds for bronze medal.

Hevey was followed by Lauren Earp, who stayed just one arm-stroke behind and earned fourth position of the discipline by submitting a time of 2 minutes and 02.81 seconds.

Furthermore, the championship ended after the completion of all swimming events while the position holders received awards and accolades for their notable efforts after the session.
