FARMINGTON – Four area senior Olympians pushed through pain, stroking and turning in each lane during today's swimming competition at the Farmington Aquatic Center.

Christine Spears, Jim Webster, Harry Nez and Rose Nez all conserved their breathing and pushed to the finish line in three events, the breaststroke, backstroke and butterfly.

The next scheduled Four Corners senior games event is the air rifle competition, which begins at 10 a.m. Tuesday at the San Juan Wildlife Range in east Farmington.
