Jessica Lloyd with her Commonwealth silver and bronze medals
DIGGLE swimming star Jessica Lloyd proudly shows off her two Commonwealth Games medals.
The 19-year-old City of Manchester Aquatics ace won a silver in the 4 x 100m freestyle relay event and a bronze medal in the 4 x 200m freestyle relay at Glasgow 2014.
The London 2012 Olympian produced excellent performances in the semi-finals of both events for Team England at the Tollcross International Swimming Centre, but despite missing out on a place in both finals, Lloyd said: “It was fantastic to win two medals, but I’m a bit gutted I didn’t swim in the finals to be honest.”
