FIONA Hardie became the second Poole swimmer to achieve nine qualifying times for the summer nationals when she recorded a personal best 5min 06.63sec in the 400m individual medley at the Portsmouth Open Meet event.

The time was the latest in a string of recent personal bests for the 17-year-old, who will swim at the National Youth Championships in July.

Team-mate Harry Kemp, 11, already has nine qualifying times for the national age groups.
