GREENCASTLE -- The Greencatle girls' swim team came up on the wrong end of a heartbreaker at Saturday's WCC meet. The Lady Tiger Sharks fell to Cascade 380-378.

South Putnam was third at 223, followed by North Putnam with 32.

GHS nearly overcame a Cascade team that won seven of 12 events, but fell just short.

Picking up individual wins for the Lady Tiger Sharks were Melanie Bittles in the 100 fly, Sydney Cassida in the 500 free and Sydney Terry in the 100 back.

The team of Cassida, Emily Wheeler, Bittles and Terry won the medley relay, while the 400 free relay of Cassida, Rachael Custis, Sarah Beams and Alison Howard took the top spot.
