March 3, 2010: The boys and girls varsity swimming and diving teams traveled to Hopkins School in New Haven, CT, this past weekend to compete in the Bud Erich Invitational.
Eliza Bragg '13, Ritchey Howe '12, Jenner McLeod '13, and Julia Pielock '10 finished first in both the 200 and 400 yard freestyle relays. Finish times broke New England and school records. In addition to these relays, Deerfield girls finished second in the 200 Yard Medley Relay (Julie Hwang '13, Hannah Broadhurst '11, Elizabeth Eastman '13, Amy Li '12)--a true team effort! Congratulations!
On the boys' side, Oliver Lee '10 set three pool records and a school record competing in the 50 free, 100 free and 100 butterfly. The team placed first overall in the meet due to the strong performance of the entire team including the young and talented divers.
Both teams travel to Hotchkiss this weekend to compete at the New England Championships. Girls swim on Saturday, boys Sunday. Trials are scheduled for 9:00am.
