SCRANTON – Scranton Prep finished first and second in four events in its
103-67 victory over Bishop Hoban in a Wyoming Valley Conference girls swim
meet Friday.
Hoban, a Southern Division team, and Prep, a Northern Division team, were
the last two undefeated teams in the league.
Prep took first and second in the 200-yard medley relay, the 200 individual
medley, the 100 butterfly and the 100 breaststroke.
Alyssa Chiumento led the 1-2 finish in the 200 individual medley, Gabby
Lucarelli followed suit in the butterfly, and Kali Solack spearheaded a 1-2-3
sweep in the 100 breaststroke.
Caroline Byron was a triple winner for the Argents. She won the 200 and 100
freestyle, and anchored the winning 400 freestyle relay.
Dallas 133, West Scranton 48
DALLAS – The Lady Mounts defeated West Scranton by placing first in 10 of
12 events. The team of Mallory Kern, Hillary Smith, Paige Kyle and Kira
Szulborski broke the Dallas school record in the 200 free relay with a time of
1:48.60.
Lizzy Stefani had West Scranton’s first-place showings, winning the 100
free and 100 back.
Tunkhannock Area 111, Berwick 62
BERWICK – Each team placed first in six events, but the disparity between
second and third place finishers for the Tigers resulted in a one-sided meet.
Mauri Anderson (50 free), Adriana Boylan (diving), Jessica Shaw (100 free)
and Courtney Austin (100 breast) all had first-place finishes for Tunkhannock.
The Bulldogs’ Ali Trovell was a winner in the 100 fly and 100 back, and was
a member on the winning 400 free relay team.
BOYS SWIMMING
Dallas 133, West Scranton 29
DALLAS – Dallas placed first in 10 of 12 events and easily defeated a West
Scranton team that had just five swimmers.
Tom Runscavage had two first-place finishes (100 fly, 200 free) and was on
two winning relay teams (200 medley, 200 free) for the Mountaineers.
Mike Lee (50 free) and Zdenek Fikar (100 breast) recorded West Scranton’s
only first-place finishes.
Tunkhannock Area 96, Berwick 76
BERWICK – Berwick placed first in eight of 12 events, but Tunkhannock was
able to overcome that disparity by racing more swimmers and taking the
overwhelming majority of the lower finishes.
Steve VanDuzer led the Tigers with first-place finishes in the 50 and 100
free, and was on the winning 400 free relay team.
Robert Albertson (200 I.M., 100 back) and Eric Smith (100 fly, 500 free)
each had a pair of first-place finishes for the Bulldogs.
