    Girls+Swim+Season+Comes+to+an+End

    The conclusion of the girls’ swim and dive season is approaching fast. The girls are preparing for the varsity league tournament, and are aiming to land a third or fourth place spot.

    “We had fewer swimmers this year, but the girls are great about branching out and trying new events that we need to fill in to get more points,” head coach David Pfortmiller said.

    The girls recently hosted their senior night dual meet against SM West. Senior Claire Williams placed first in both the women’s 200-freestyle and the 500-freestyle. Senior Jessica Kirchner placed second in the women’s 100-breaststroke and, and senior Carolyn Osbern placed second in the women’s 200-individual medley.

    “Freshman and sophomore year, we had more girls on the team than we do now, but we still have managed to remain second in district,” Osbern said. “Everyone wants to be here and wants to do well, and that’s why I love being here.”
