In the 200 medley Wawasee’s group of Sailor Davis-York, Ebba Bjurman, Lizzy Brugh and Tessa Freel swam a 2:16.36 to win the event. That time was just good enough to beat out NorthWood’s effort of 2:16.50, put up by Hannah Eberle, Elle Jansen, Kate Jarvis and Brittany Hershberger.

In the other two relays it was Shelby Adams, Alyssa Koch, Ella Park and Paige Miller that teamed up for the pair of wins. The foursome swam a 1:49.74 in the 200 and a 4:03.82 in the 400.

Tuesday’s meet was Wawasee’s final home meet of the season. The Warriors return to action Jan. 3, 2017 at Northridge.

With her seniors never again having a competitive swim in their home pool, Wawasee head coach shared some thoughts on her graduating class.

“I have coached some of these seniors for almost nine years,” Julie Robinson, Wawasee’s head coach, began. “They have not only shaped the way I coach fundamentally, but also how to communicate better with their age group. They have taught me that wins do no necessarily come in terms of results in meets but in the challenges that are overcome. Most of all, they are all great leaders.”
