(1) EISM Swimming Champions Carnival

Congratulations to the 40 students who represented the College at the EISM Champions Swimming Carnival last Monday. It is an excellent achievement to qualify for this event. The Under 16 boys’ relay team of Lucien Primavera, Jack O’Connell, Noah Vulfs and Ryleigh McCormick took home bronze medals in their medley relay — an outstanding achievement.

Team selection will be sent out over the holidays, so students are encouraged to look out for an email regarding that if they think they may have qualified.

(4) Student Achievements 

Baseball
Congratulations to Ryder Wilson (Year 10 Bronze) who has achieved a lot in his sport over the last term: 

• Ryder (pictured below) was selected as a member of the Under 16 Victorian squad, as catcher, finishing as runner-up in the state
• played his first senior State League season, selected as the club’s base runner for Division 1. Being selected in this team as a 15-year-old is a huge achievement given it is the highest level of amateur baseball in the state
• in the upcoming holidays, Ryder will compete in the Victorian Senior League State Championships, where the winner will progress to the World Series tournament in the USA
• he has also been selected to take part in a four-month training program with the Victorian Under 16 squad, commencing in April. Ryder will be attempting to secure a position with the Victorian squad for the upcoming 2022 Australian National Championships, to be held in Queensland in July.

We look forward to hearing about your successes for the upcoming season, Ryder!
