The Holliston Swimming and Diving team competed against a large, strong Hopkinton-Ashland team Friday, January 2nd at Keefe Tech. Despite several strong performances by Holliston, the Boys team fell by a score of 51 to 99, while the Girls team lost a competitive meet by a score of 69 to 95. The Boys and Girls teams both stand at 2-1, with the teams co-ed meet record at 0-2.
On the Boys side, 1st place finishes went to Matt Flynn (1 meter diving) and Bobby Beauchemin (500 yard freestyle - also demonstrating that the team can now count up to 20 ;-) ). Other strong performances for Holliston were turned in by Troy Hutchinson (diving and 100 yd breastroke), David Kreigsman (100 yd breastroke), and Sam Wolpert (200 yd Individual Medley).
In the Girls meet, Julie Beauchemin won the 200 yd freestyle. Strong performances by other Holliston Swimmers included those by Rachel Dinehart and Chloe Chen-Kraus in the 100 yard breaststroke, Christine Belforti and Anna Montain in the 100 yd backstroke, and Molly Curry in the 50 yard freestyle.
A good showing from the team - the combined Hopkinton/Ashland team was huge, and could fill many more slots than HHS could, but strong performances kept the meet competitive, especially in the girls meet.
Lots of good results from the team, with lots of personal improvements in times/scores. Molly Curry swam within 0.5 seconds of qualifying for sectionals in the 50 yd Free, while Bobby B. is on the cusp of qualifying in both the 500 yd freestyle and the 200 yd individual medley.
Team and individual results have been updated on the website (you can now access individual results directly from the results page).
Holliston’s next meet is Tuesday, January 6th vs. Lincoln-Sudbury at the Atkinson pool in Sudbury at 3:30.
