Six swimmers each take three first place finishes to lead Larayo over Ellington
Defending River Parish Swim League champion Larayo won its fourth contest in a row on Monday, notching a 495-49 victory at home over Ellington to move to 4-0 on the year.
Rain delayed the start of the event, but also contributed to a surge of swimming talent that would be available to go: had the rain not led to a series of postponed baseball games in the area, those who would have been playing in the game would have not been at the meet to swim.
“With the games rained out, it leads to chaos at these meets,” said Larayo Coach Michelle Jensen. “It went well though. Everyone got a chance to swim for the most part.”
Larayo Assistant Coach Kelly Cupit said that that course of events allowed swimmers to change things up, and swim in different scenarios and events than they otherwise would have.
“All the kids were having fun,” said Cupit. “There was a lot of moving around, it gave the kids a chance to swim different strokes, which was good for everybody.”
Larayo opened up a 100-8 lead after the freestyle event, and coasted from there.
“They have a much smaller team than we do,” said Jensen.
Kelsie Williams, Cody Schafer, Hailey Specht, Maggie Trepagnier, Emily Brady, and Norbert Weinart each captured first place in three individual events.
Others who finished first in multiple events were: Seth LeBlanc, Madison Roussel, Jacob Jensen, Brandon Klibert, and Christie Brady.
Rounding out first place winners were Trey Lowry, Jordan Jensen, Will East, Paige Williams, Luke Jackson, Ben East, Claire Adams, Shelby Clement, Scott Keller, Jared Keating, Justin Smith, Adam Ratliff, Chelsey Brignac and Kaitlyn Vitrano.
