Boys relay team qualifies for WPIALs
January 11, 2017
Though the girls and boys swim teams lost to Elizabeth Forward on Tuesday, a relay team and one swimmer from Baldwin qualified for WPIALs.
Senior Liam Watterson qualified for WPIALS for the 200 individual medley, and the boys relay team qualified for the 200 freestyle relay. The relay team consists of seniors Watterson, Chris Collins, Jake Fowler, and Sean Hissong.
“As a team we did really well,” Watterson said.
Elizabeth Forward is one of the team’s biggest competitors. Despite having fewer swimmers, Baldwin performed well.
Fowler is excited for the rest of the swim season.
“Not only do I want to improve my own times, but I want to grow stronger as an entire team,” Fowler said. Competing as hard as possible is what will push the team forward.
The teams have a home meet against Upper St. Clair this Thursday at 6 p.m.
