CONGRATULATIONS goes out to our Varsity Swim teams for their impressive performances at this past weekend's NCOSL Championships held at Colonel Crawford High School. The Ram swimmers finished as runners-up in the nine team field while the Lady Rams finished in third place out of ten teams. The teams combined for a runners-up overall performance. The Rams were paced by Senior Aidan Bacon who was champion in the 200 Free and scored 28 points on the day. Fellow Seniors Braxton Cundiff (3rd in 500 Free and 100 Back) and Aden Davis (2nd in 200 IM and 4th in 100 Breast) scored 24 points each while Senior teammate Elijah Robinson (2nd in 100 Fly) and Freshman Drew Leightey (2nd in 500 Free) each scored 22 points on the day.
For the Lady Rams, Senior Ellie Zeller led the way with 25 points including a second place finish in the 200 Free and a third place finish in the 50 Free. Junior Kyla Conley was second on the team with 24 points and had a second place finish in the 100 Free and fourth place in the 50 Free. Another great day in the pool for our USHS swimmers and another fantastic finish for both teams! Both teams will be back in action this Thursday at the Mt. Gilead Invite hosted by the Marion YMCA. Go Rams and Lady Rams!
