Ivey, Kibler, Nordmann, and Roy are each swimming in their 2nd, and last, Jr. Pan Pacific Championship meet, while Bacon, who is entering her junior year of high school, will be age-eligible for the 2020 meet. The 4 returning swimmers combined for 6 gold, 3 silver, and 3 bronze medals at the 2016 meet, led by 4 golds and a bronze from Ivey.
2016 Results
- Bacon – did not swim
- Ivey – 4 golds, 1 bronze

The USA has won 4 straight Jr. Pan Pac team titles, with a 170-point margin over Australia in 2016. Based on seeds, they should easily take a 5th this weekend in Fiji.
Congrats to the well deserved team captains! Bring home the Gold!!!
Is it necessary to put their college choices by their name? Their colleges or their coaches have done nothing yet to get them to Fiji! Talk more about their club and their current coaches!
Isn’t Isabel Ivey from the Gator Swim Club in Gainesville, FL?
She switched clubs earlier this year.
Ok. Where is Laker Swim, and why did she switch?
People like SUPERFAN are what are killing this sport. No, they haven’t done anything to get them to Fiji, but, it’s what fans of the sport want to know. Ya know, those fans, that you guys ask to pay hundreds of dollars to show up and watch your swimmers no-show their races?
Don’t worry, their club programs will continue to get full credit for their swims for the next decade or so of their careers after they leave, via continued listing on official entries under teams they don’t actually swim for. It all evens out.

That’s actually really interesting to see the wheel turn like that. For the most part, each section of swimmers has taken the next step on the international stage! Thanks Bobo
I wonder what would happen if people actually read Bobo’s posts before voting him down?
