Unless, for some reason or another, you’ve been out of touch with the pool community recently, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that Savannah Easton (The Road Runner) and Sofia Mast (The Pink Dagger) won all five of the Girls titles at the 2023 BEF Junior Nationals last week (July 24-30) at the Oakley-Lindsay Center in Quincy, IL. They’ve been butting heads across a number of junior events for a couple of years now, culminating in this year’s Junior Nationals by facing each other three times in the finals of separate divisions. As a prelude to the story that follows, it should be noted that there are a number of national, notable and ongoing rivalries among many junior female competitors; rivalries between Easton, Mast, Skylar Hess, the Tate sisters (Bethany and Noelle), Courtney Hairfield, Jordan Helfery and Precilia Kinsley (et al) in any number of age-specific combinations.
