Zhen Yi made her debut as Overall Primary Champ in MSSS 2014


The MSSS Swimming Championship 2014 was held in Shah Alam for 4 days from 25th to 28th February, 2014 with 44 primary and secondary schools in Selangor participating.


The age-group champions of MSSS 2014
The 4-day competition must be tiring not only for swimmers but also parents and teachers who stayed vigilantly to watch their children/students perform. But the fruit of victory always prove to be sweet.

Catholic High School emerged as the top swim team after harvesting 18 gold, 1 silver and 2 bronze, followed by SJK (C) Batu Sebelas Cheras in second overall position with 10 gold.

What was amazing is there was only one sole swimmer from SJK (C) Batu Sebelas Cheras and she made a clean splash of 10 gold to push the overall position of her school to the second highest spot. The lone swimmer is none other than Yeong Zhen Yi, 10, an IBSC swimmer who came in top in all the 10 events she participated. With her golden achievement, Zhen Yi was awarded the overall champion for primary school section.

Yeong Zhen Yi's 10 gold achievement made her teachers proud 

Meanwhile,  the secondary overall champ was won by Yeap Zhen Yang, 15, representing SMK Catholic with his fantastic performance of 3 meet records and 8 gold.

The various age-group champions were awarded to Jayden Tan Khai Xin (U10 Boys), Lim Shun Qi (U10 Girls), David Ong Tze Li * (U12 Boys), Yeong Zhen Yi * (U12 Girls), Ng Yi Hao * (U15 Boys), Carynn Kay Chan * (U15 Girls), Yeap Zheng Yang (U18 Boys) and Yap Siew Hui (U18 Girls).
