PREP ROUNDUP: Shark swimmers compete well; Cougar wrestlers second

Tuesday, December 12, 2017

Greencastle hosted Crawfordsville for a pair of high school swimming meets on Monday night, with the Athenians coming out on top in both events.

Crawfordsville won the boys’ meet by a 111-72 score and the girls’ meet by a 104-81 margin.

“It’s always a great night for swimming when the Athenians come to town,” Greencastle coach Kent Menzel said. “We have a long history of spirited competition with Crawfordsville, and this meet was no exception.

“Our Sharks battled to the very end, but just did not have enough firepower to overcome a strong late-meet surge by Coach Kevin Hedrick’s squad.”

In the girls’ race, Menzel saw “very strong” swimming from a freshman quartet of Katie White, Sydney Anderson, Paige Kaiser and Zoe Weltz.

“Throughout the meet those four recorded multiple lifetime bests and scored well for the team,” he said.

For the boys, Menzel said GHS senior Preston Headley, junior Ben Parsons and sophomore Sal Martoglio were very “impressive,” also swimming well from start to finish of the meet.

“Headley’s 100 breaststroke win was a highlight for the night,” Menzel said.
