With the district meet two weeks away, Sweet Home’s swimmers are ready to begin tapering their training €“ winding up the two-a-day swims and letting the training take affect.
The Huskies held their last meet Friday, with Stayton and Sisters, before ending their daily doubles, and the numbers looked very good to Coach Doug Peargin.
“We’re at least equal to or maybe even a little above where we were last year at this time of the year,” he said. Last year’s boys team won the state championship.
“”It’s nice to be right where we’re at with District just eight practice days away. We had lots of PRs in this meet.”
Sweet Home won the boys meet with triple the points scored by either of the other teams, while the Huskies came close in the girls competition, losing to Stayton 103-97, with Sisters third (91).
Standout performances for the Huskies were turned in by Naomi Gunselman, who swam the fourth-fastest 100 Butterfly time in school history, 1:02.2; Sami Webb, who turned in the eighth-fastest 100 Freestyle time ever for a Husky girls swimmer;
Kieran Schaefer, who tied the 10th-best boys 50 Freestyle time with a 22.7; and Zac Pearce, who swam the 500 Freestyle for the first time this season and posted the third-fastest time ever for a Sweet Home boy €“ 4:58.6.
“I think all of our kids are ready to have a heck of a District Meet,” Peargin said. “We’ve practiced twice a day for three months and now it’s time to rest up and go to the District Meet.”
