Thanks to their dominant showing at the May 31-June 5 Canadian Espoir Synchronized Swimming Championships in Winnipeg, Nepean Synchro product Olivia Jensen-Large and Gloucester Synchro’s Jade Warren were selected to Canada’s 2016 age 13-15 national team that will compete in the Sept. 1-4 UANA Pan American Championships in Puerto Rico.

Out of a field of 232 competitors, Warren topped the figures competition, and also added a 3rd-place finish in the solo event. Now based in Toronto, Jensen-Large won the duet competition alongside regional training centre Ontario partner Maura McLean.

Gloucester’s Meaghan Lapierre was also a champion at the event, winning both the age 11-12 figures and solo events.
