KENTON__The Ada High School swim teams competed in a dual meet at county rival Kenton on Senior Night in the Hardin County YMCA on January 30.
The Wildcats won the combined team meet by a score of 166-83.
Ada freshman Jacob Szippl won the 50-yard freestyle and 100 breaststroke to pace the Bulldogs.
Other individual first-place winners for Ada were sophomore Lydia Demascio (100 backstroke), senior Jack Baumgartner (100 butterfly) and freshman Tim Chrissobolis (100 backstroke).
The Ada boys and girls 200 medley relay teams also touched the wall first in their races.
“It was both team’s senior night,” said Ada head coach Ashley Robey. “So it was really fun to watch everyone come and celebrate all their years of swimming.
“We had a lot of top place finishes and time drops,” she continued. ”It was very fast with a lot of the boys and girls events getting combined, so a lot of them were swimming back-to-back (events) with very little rest.”
Ada is back in the pool Thursday in a quadrangular meet at the Putnam County YMCA vs. Bluffton, McComb and Elida.
