The Hatchets jumped into a new season at Thursday’s Colby Pentathlon.
“Ladysmith dominated nearly every event,” THS coach Theresa L’Esperance said “The Fuse sisters have amazing talent. Clintonville had the other top swimmer.
“The young Hatchets showed their potential talent in Morgan Weber finishing 2nd overall against all freshmen and sophomore Katherine Russell finishing third. Senior Hannah Schmit swam four personal bests and a second place finish overall among seniors. Senior Mary Galloy also swam four out of five personal bests.”
Weber gave the Hatchets several high finishes, including a 3rd in the 50 brea (:36.01), 4ths in the 50 fly (:30.19) and 50 free (:27.43), a 5th in the 50 back (:32.34) and an 8th in the 100 IM (1:12.09).
Russell swam 6th in the 50 back (:32.41), 8th in the 50 fly (:31.03) and 11th in the 100 IM (1:14.18). Michaela Galganski rated 7th in the 50 brea (:36.74) and 14th in the 50 free (:29.130. Karli Cecil placed 11th in the 50 fly in :31.44.
