After capping an undefeated league dual meet season by winning the Tri-County Athletic League championships last weekend, the Acorn boys and girls swim teams are rolling into CCS.
If there was ever a team with an embarassment of riches, it’s Live Oak.
Among the Acorn boys who will compete this weekend are: senior David Dunn (100 butterfly and 100 breaststroke), senior Travis Aviles (50 freestyle), junior Ryan Gautschi (100 breaststroke), sophomore Justin Short (200 freestyle and 500 freestyle), freshman Cameron Peachy (100 backstroke) and freshman Kyle Fast (500 freestyle). In addition, juniors Dennis Lowe and Korey Robinson, and sophomore Shea Coleman will swim with their teammates in all three relays at the section finals.
Acorn girls who will compete include: senior Susan Suchomel (100 butterfly), sophomore Ronni Gautschi (100 freestyle), sophomore Laura Melroy (200 freestyle and 500 freestyle), and freshman Laura Shope (100 freestyle). Also, senior Jessica Kapetanic, junior Amanada Cretcher and sophomores Amy Marshall and Breanna Sennert will compete in all three relays.
