Wog was named the woman swimmer of the meet after she collected six medals – three gold, two silver, and a bronze.

Wog won the 50m breaststroke with a time of 31.01 seconds, beating her next closest competitor by a second. Wog won the 100m breastroke with a time of 1:05.59, breaking the championship record and beating the closest competitor by nearly four seconds. Wog also collected the silver medal in the 200m breaststroke with a time of 2:27.86.

Wog was part of Manitoba’s bronze medal-winning 4x100m relay team that finished with a time of 3:50.14. She was also apart of the relay team that collected silver in the 4x200m relay. On the final day of the meet, Wog won the 200m IM with a time 2:09.29, breaking yet another championship record.
