Final Scores (Swimming & Diving)
Williston Northampton 221, Westminster 192, Walker’s 171, Kingswood-Oxford 161, Canterbury 139, Wilbraham & Monson 56
Walker’s has enjoyed participating in this invitational since 2018. A meet that typically is home to 9 teams, this year Kingswood-Oxford hosted its annual meet at Westminster and Walker’s placed 3rd out of 6 girls teams. Walker’s defeated Kingswood-Oxford, Canterbury, and Wilbraham and Monson, but fell short 21 points behind Westminster’s Swimming & diving team, and taking the win was Williston-Northampton. This fun meet includes two non-traditional high school events: 100 IM and the 100 underwater relay, along with having only one entry per heat, of which there are 2 per event. The meet is scored per heat, instead of collectively as an event. Walker’s had great results in the A and B heats throughout the meet:
200 medley relay, A: 3rd place (Kylie Donaldson, Lucia Morales, Natalie Stewart, Cecilia Li)
200 freestyle, A: 3rd place Alexia Grech, B: 3rd place Liyan Du
