Cooke swims to silver

Siina Cooke, of Kowhai Swimming Club, swam her way to silver in the 50-metre breaststroke event at the 2017 Auckland Swimming Association Junior Championships last month. The competition was held at West Wave Aquatic Centre from November 24 to 26 for swimmers 12 and under. Cooke, 9, also came close to the podium with fourth placings in both the 100m and 200m breaststroke. Both Cooke and another Kowhai swimmer, Mia Morrison, hit personal bests in all their races.
