Sweet Home’s swimmers showed their depth, at least on the girls side, and turned in some quality times Friday as they hosted Marist, Salem Academy and St. Mary’s (Medford).
“They swam really well,” said Coach A Jay Bronson. “I’m happy with where we are at this point in the season.”
The Huskies were missing four of their eight boys, which “kinda killed us there,” Bronson said.
But, he added, freshman RJ Abbott had a good meet, along with seniors Malia Hewitt and Isabel Sayer.
Abbott won the 200 Individual Medley and the 100 Butterfly for the boys, who placed third behind Marist and St. Mary’s.
Also, he said, Emerson Martineau, “a brand new swimmer, dropped a good amount of time in the 50 Free.”
Hewitt won the 200 Freestyle and 100 Butterfly, and helped the girls to wins in the 200 Medley Relay and the 400 Freestyle Relay.
Sayer also swam legs in the winning 200 Medley and 200 Freestyle relays, and was third in the 200 IM and the 100 Butterfly.
The Sweet Home girls won all 11 of their events to finish with 161 points, well ahead of St. Mary’s 61.
Other individual winners for the girls were Chloe Tyler in the 200 IM and the 100 Freestyle, Jamie Seward in the 100 Freestyle and the 100 Backstroke, and freshman Kirsten Sautel in the 500 Freestyle and 100 Breaststroke.
For the boys, Micah Wright placed first in the 100 Freestyle.
“We had tons of time drops all around,” Bronson said. “Moving forward, we have a lot of potential.”
The Huskies will compete Saturday, Dec. 18, at Lebanon .
