Original Toronto Star caption: Mississauga merman dominates pool. Brad Creelman, 14-year-old star of the Mississauga Aquatic Swim Club, swept home first in three events at the North York A.C.'s swimming meet at the Etobicoke Olympium last night. He won easily in the 200-metre freestyle and the 200-metre breaststroke, then look a breather before setting a gold medal record in the 400-metre individual medley.
