Up & Comers: Claire Tuggle
Sponsored by Spectrum – Visit the Swimming World Magazine Vault to Read More.
If you ask 12-year-old Claire Tuggle of the Clovis Swim Club in California what her favorite thing is about the sport of swimming, the answer is simple: she loves to race. And that love for racing has translated into national age group (NAG) records in six events (three for girls 10-and-under and three for girls 11-12).
Tuggle’s coach, Mark Bennett, explained to Swim- ming World, “She is very consistent with her effort, in- tensity and focus at practices. When she sets a goal, it’s not enough to achieve it just once. She will strive to achieve the objective over and over, and then strive to do it even better!”
To learn more about Tuggle and her accomplishments, check out the June 2017 issue of Swimming World!
