DHS’s Varsity Swim team travelled to Greenwich High School to compete in FCIACs on Friday, 11/3. Darien tied with Norwalk for fifth in the county. Although it was a rough meet for most of the team, some swimmers shone in their individual events.
Senior Caroline Kearney, in her last FCIACs of her high school career, truly went out with a bang. With two lifetime best times, she showed everyone her true potential. She went 2.17 minutes in her 200 yard Individual Medley along with 1.01 minutes in her 100 yard Butterfly. Freshman Courtney Ferriera in her first ever championship meet also did a best time, going a 5.29 minutes in her 500 Free, 20 laps down the pool.
Junior Olivia Leunis was a FCIAC first team qualifier in the 100 Breastroke, placing third overall with a 1.08.03. Senior Captain Cammie Kirby said, “We had a tough meet but we are keeping our heads held high and looking forward to competing in states.”
Blue Wave Swim and Dive will compete in State Trials in Monroe, CT on 11/12. Wish these swimmers good luck!
