It was so amazing to watch – they were all fabulous!! So many individual point scorers, including individual double gold medal winners Devin Naoroz (100 fly, 100 back) and Bryce Mortimer (200 IM and 100 breast), along with notable top 3 finishes by Christine Datovech (2nd in the 100 fly and 2nd in the 100 back) and Crash Ackerly (2nd in 100 back to his teammate, along with a 4th in the 200 free). Our swimmers also posted 3 gold medal relays – the boys 200 medley relay (C. Ackerly, B. Mortimer, D. Naoroz, and J. Puzon), the boys 400 free relay (C. Ackerly, A. Satpathy, R. McAtee, and D. Naoroz), and a thrilling win for the girls 400 free relay, coming from behind to win this last event by 0.05 and clinch the state title (Ala Killen, Delaney Prescott, Elizabeth O’Shea, and Christine Datovech). So many other personal bests and fabulous swims throughout this meet!! Congrats to our swimmers – you are all champions!!!!
