The Willow Canyon swim team competed against Bolder Creek at the Surprise Pool Wednesday, October 13. Coach Anna Flores said, “The swimmers try to improve their timing from each meet from before; they strive to do their best when competing.”
Ms. Flores’ top swimmers and divers are freshman Matthew Olloren and junior Monicka Olloren, junior Korynne Rollins, and junior Nate Zillweger. All the swim members must stretch and practice before each meet.
Everyone is assigned in teams for different strokes, races and dives, all of which takes time to execute. For the IM event senior Joel Baker-Hecsh and junior Monicka Olloren came in first place with flying colors as they were ahead several stokes.
For the Wildcat divers, junior Korynne Rollins and junior Nate Zillweger placed first with their well-performed dives looking flawless.
Invitationals were October 29 and 30 at Glendale Community College and state is November 5 and 6. “The swim team is like a family, and I am going to miss them when I graduate this year,” said captain senior Sami Tengberg.
