Monroe/New Glarus Swim Team Competes at Badger West Relays
September 8, 2022
The Monroe/New Glarus Varsity Swim Team competed at the Badger West Relay Meet on August 30, 2022. The team finished in sixth place out of eight teams. Edgewood placed first, Baraboo second, Oregon third, McFarland fourth, Sauk Prairie fifth, Mount Horeb seventh and Portage eighth.
“Haley and I are very excited for the season this year,” said Coach Rachel Root. “Due to having a smaller team, we entered eight relays out of the twelve total relay events. However, out of the eight relays we swam in, six of the relays finished in the top three. We had a few swimmers that swam close to their season best times from last year. Our freshmen swimmers swam well at their first high school meet. We are excited to watch our team continue to improve throughout the season. The swimmers did a great job supporting one another throughout the meet.”
2nd Place finishes included the 200 Medley (Amelia Geib, Brinlee Chapman, Danika Doll, Kristina Foley), and the 4x50 Fresh/Soph (Anna Zentner, Delaney Lynch, Megan Chapman, Piper Faber). 3rd Place finishes included 4x100 IM Relay (Riley Hoesly, Amelia Geib, Maggie Piper, Piper Faber), 4x50 Breast/Fly/Breast/Fly (Megan Chapman, Anna Zentner, Maggie Piper, Delaney Lynch), 4x50 Fly (Anna Zentner, Delaney Lynch, Maggie Piper, Riley Hoesly), and 400 Free Relay (Megan Chapman, Danika Doll, Amelia Geib, Riley Hoesly).
