The pride of Kippens is heading to her third Paralympics, after qualifying for Team Canada this weekend in Toronto.

Swimmer Katarina Roxon is on the roster for the Paralympic team heading to the Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro from Aug. 5 to Aug. 21.

Roxon was one of the swimmers who swam during six days of trials at the Toronto Pan Am Sports Centre.

This won't be her first rodeo.

Just last year, Roxon won a total of six medals at the 2015 ParapanAm Games.

Roxon has been swimming on national teams since she was 12.

Both the Olympic and Paralympic teams were introduced Sunday.
