The Jr. Pirate swimmers did a phenomenal job in their season opener agains the Seymour Owls. While being outnumbered, the Pirate Boys managed a victory 86-68. The boys went 1-2 in four events, winning the meet in dominating fashion, despite having only 7 members. The girls, while managing 4 new school records, ended up on the losing end of a 117-59. The meet started with the Pirate girls cranking out a new school record, only to be wiped out by an early exchanged, called a disqualification by the official. The first official school record was set by Abby Bausback in the 50 Butterfly with a time of 29.92, dashing the old record of a 31.98. Bri Stagge followed suit less than a minute later breaking the school record in the 100 Freestyle with a time of 1:05.29; bettering the old mark of 1:07.00. Six events later, Abby went two-for-two in individual school records setting a new mark in the 100 Backstroke. The new standard was set at 1:10.09 over seven seconds faster than the old mark set by Pirate alum Ellen Weigel (coincidentally the old record holder in the 100 free, as well). The celebration was made complete with a relay record in the 4x 100 Freestyle relay consisting of members: Stagge, Alli Duerstock, Emily Eberhardt, and Bausback. The time of 4:37.94 beat last season's mark of 4:45.36. The Jr. Pirate swim team competes Thursday night at home against Eastern Hancock.
