The Shelton girls' swimming and diving
season ended at the district championships
last weekend.
From Thursday, Oct. 27 through Satur-
day, Oct. 29, the Lady Highclimbers com-
peted in the 200-yard medley relay, the
200-yard freestyle relay, the 50-yard free-
style, the 100-yard breaststroke and diving.
Only the medley relay and freestyle re-
lay teams competed fast enough to place,
though only in the consolation finals.
"The relays went faster." Chad
Youngquist, co-head coach, said. "We got
all best times for the relay. We went ranked
lower than we ended up, with the relay
team ranked 14 at the beginning of the
meet and ending up 12th."
Youngquist said all of the swimmers im-
proved but not enough to move on to state,
for which seventh is the lowest place ac-
cepted. Swimmers could have also qualified
for state based on their event times.
Hannah Garcia competed in the 50-yard
freestyle while Sara Minighin received a
wildcard in the 100-yard breaststroke. The
two divers for SHS were Mishawn Ewart
and Paige Roberts
Together with Carisa Kunkle and Sarah
Myers, Garcia and Minighin also competed
m the 200-yard medley relay. These four
swimmers were also the 200-yard freestyle
team for the Lady Highclimbers.
"None of the girls went fast enough to
go to the second day of the championships,"
Youngquist
said. "Our most
outstanding
performance
was Sarah
Myers on the
50-freestyle
stretch for both
of the relay
teams. She's
now top six in
Shelton his-
tory."
Youngquist
said that, as a
coach, he always
Sarah hopes the swim-
mers compete
Myers beyond what is
IIJ
a reasonable ex-
pectation
"I think we're
a young team and we went to a really big
meet." he added. "They swam the way you
would expect them to swim. They swam
near their best times but both they and ]
hoped they would swim at the breakout lev-
el. I think with time and experience, they'll
do even better."
Co-head coach Rob Phelan said the div-
ers, Ewart and Roberts. were both a bit
nervous.
"They were a little rocky at first." Phelan
added. "They really improved at the end of
the season with great strides. I was happy
just to get to districts."
