Swimmers find the going tough on opening day

It was a tough day at the pool for two of Guyana’s swimmers on the opening day of this year’s Commonwealth Youth Games now underway in Trinidad and Tobago. 

Both Elliot Gonsalves and Ariel Rodrigues recorded commendable performances but were unable to progress following their respective heats at the National Aquatic Centre in Couva. 

Gonsalves finished fourth in his 200m freestyle heat in 2:05.00, while Rodrigues finished second in the 50m butterfly in 30.54s.
