Pendle Tigers swim to a


fine victory

part in the annual event, which nas grown and grown in stature over the last few years. After a long afternoon of competi­ tion, it was apparent that Pendle Tigers had the strongest squad and were soon power­ ing to impressive wins in a majority of the


races. At the end of the day, Tigers finished with 93


points, 40 points ahead of second-spot St Mary’s. Results: 1st, Pendle Tigers (93); 2nd, St Mary’s
