What a nail biter at the YHS pool on Tuesday evening!!!  The YHS Girls and Boys team swam their way to victory against county rival Muncie Central.  Here are some thoughts from Coach Laura:

We couldn't be prouder or happier about the meet on Tuesday!  Well done Tigers!  There were excellent races and great dives.  From what was seen Tuesday night, we are headed into an exciting sectionals.  Seniors, your hard work deserved to be acknowledge and you will be truly missed next year.  We wish you all the best.  You know there's always room for you to come back and visit.

Photographers from the Muncie Star Press captured some great shots of the evening.  Check out this link from their photo gallery!

As the boys head into their taper, the girls are getting ready for an exciting sectionals week!  Stay tuned for results from sectional prelminaries on Friday!

GO TIGERS!

From Coach Laura:

Conference was amazing!  We had so much fun!  The meet went off with a
bang as the girls 200 Medley Relay broke a 2004 Conference
record.  From there, both the girls and the boys were off to a great
start.  

On the girls side, some of the highlights would be a fanstastic 500 race by Bailey Windell, the girls 200 Free relay taking second when seeded 6th, and finishing 1,2,4 in the 100 backstroke (Larah Beaver, Caroline Grasso and Katie Keller).  Also, the girls won conference for the 2nd year in a row. 

On the boys side, Kyle Miller dropped 44 seconds in the 500 free,
Kyle Reese had a fantastic split of 24.7 in the 200 Free Relay, and James Kemp had a 10 second time drop in the 200 IM.  We couldn't be happier or prouder of the results from Saturday.  As a team we dropped a total of 1 min and 54.6 seconds. There were best times in nearly every event.  We're looking forward to a great end of the season!  

Practice Monday, will be 9-12 for theboys and 10-12 for the girls.  A special Thank you to Mr. Heavilon and Mrs. Huisman for representing Yorktown as timers on Saturday!

Also, a special congratulations to Coach Laura for winning girls conference coach!!!  Check website for highlight photos later this week!
