Lady+Eagles+Step+Up+at+States

The Lady Eagles had a very successful day and night at the 2012 Girls Class A State Championships at the Wallace Pool, University of Maine, Orono on Monday 2/20/12.

The highlights included two 3rd Place finishes from Elaine Miller in the 50 Free (25.30) and 100 Free (55.56). In both races she broke her own team records.

Also, McKayla Eskilson had two point scoring swims in the evening finals. McKayla finished 14th in the 200 IM (2:34.36) and 16th in the 100 Breast (1:18.15).

The Girls also had all three relay teams make the evening finals. The 200 Medley quartet of Mary Emerson, Olivia Gilvey, Sheridan Sone, and Tali Amero swam in the Consolation Finals and combined to swim a strong 2:20.01 good for a 15th Place finish. The 200 Free unit of Miller, Alexandra Farinella, Eskilson, and Ashley Crocker made the Championship Finals and swam a 1:51.74 to finish an excellent 6th Place. The same foursome also swam the 400 Free Relay the Consolation Finals. Their swim of 4:09.15 put them into 11th Place.

Well done! When combined with the swims at the South Southwestern Championships, the Lady Eagles certainly peaked at the right time of the season!
