The Hurricanes placed sixth at Division 111 team champi- - onships and third at Aqua 7 team championships last spring in her first go -round as coach, and have swimmers ranked in the top 25 Canadians in their respective age groups in some events. The Aqua 7 league has teams from Burlington, Kitchener, Stratford, Niagara Falls, Woodstock, Brantford and -New Hamburg. "1 come from a family and area that is very hockey dom- inated during this time of year," says Popple in a recent press release. "It -is extremely difficult to convey to the pub- lic the adv;intages of swim- ming and the high levels our athletes reach. "At present -we have ath- letes who are ranked in the top 20 in Canada for their age group. Attending junior nationals is an accomplish- ment few experience but we have and this season we will he aiming for Nationals." The Hurricanes train out of 'the Vanastra Recreation Centre and is made up of swimmers ranging in age from 17 to 18 years, about a dozen of them from the Seaforth area. Vickey Carter of Harpurhey is assistant coach this year. All swimmers who are able to complete at least one length, or 25 metres, are wel- come to join the swim team. The Hurricanes now come to Vanastra from places as far aflung as Goderich, Mitchell, Wingham and Dashwood. Exercise, fun, friends and personal achievement are stressed. The season gets going in earnest this Saturday with the Hurricanes' alumni meet at Vanastra from 8:30 a.m. to noon.
