The JHS Boys’ swimming team has had a great start to the season thus far. Their current record is 4-2 with wins against Lincoln, Southeast, Routt, and Macomb and losses against Springfield High and Chatham.
The team consists of 22 members; senior captains are Kolby Briggs, Louie Brooks, Mitchell Karr, Connor Richardson, Dominic Scott, and Stephen Vollmer. The whole team is working very hard to always be prepared for each meet they have with practices every day after school.
Senior captain Connor Richardson said, “The practices have been fun but hard. We often play games to make all the hard work more enjoyable.”
Richardson said, “It’s been a challenging but also a very rewarding and fun season so far.” The boys have their next meet on Saturday, January 26, against O’Fallon.
With a decent start to the season, Richardson anticipates the team will “do alright but not necessarily the best” at their final meets.
The team’s season will end in mid-February with regionals for some of the team and with sectionals for the rest on February 16.
Good luck on the rest of your season, JHS Boys’ Swimming!
