The team, even though we are smaller than most in numbers, did incredibly well,” said Board member Jeff Jones. “We had 16 swimmers attend and all of them made the evening finals over the course of the three-day meet.
“The team had nine medal winners and took home 35 in total.”
Astrid McCormick took home one medal; Ail Page won two, Lucas Jones; Matt
Kemp and Ella Boisvert each won three; Daisy Jenkins, Natalie Pretty and Isabelle
