Windham junior Pascal Hentsch qualified for the state championship and dropped 1.5 seconds off his time in the 100-yard breaststroke. He finished second in that event with a time of 1:16.84 minutes.
Also, in the 100 breaststroke, Windham freshman Mahiro Hammond finished fifth with a time of 1:30.98.
Windham Sophomore Sullivan Scharf finished first in the 100 backstroke with a time of 58.55 seconds. He finished second in the 200 freestyle with a 1:58.30 time.
Windham freshman Peter Funk had a first-place finish in the 200 individual medley with a time of 2:11.15. In the 500 freestyle he finished second with a 5:12.59 time.
In the 50 freestyle, Windham freshman Beckett Bragdon had a 27.86 time and a fourth-place finish.
Windham freshman Rocco DiDonato finished sixth in the 100 backstroke with a time of 1:21.33.
“I think we swam pretty good as a team,” said DiDonato. “I got better at my form in backstroke, because I don’t usually do backstroke. The team, I think we just swam faster and pushed ourselves harder. (We need) a bit more work on form and flip turns a little bit. I think we did pretty good.”
Windham freshman Stephanie Roghelia placed first in the 100 freestyle with a 1:00.19 time and the 50 freestyle with a time of 27.22.
“I think we did amazing,” said Roghelia. “I’m super happy with how everyone has improved, we did really good with teamwork and stuff. I think I did a good job with my flip turns and my breakouts, which I’ve been working on. We did really good cheering on each other, and I’m really impressed with our sportsmanship. I think one thing we can really improve on is to help lift up other teams as well and really bring the energy.”
In the 200-freestyle Windham senior Sarah Inman finished second with a 2:16.93 time. She also finished fourth in the 100-butterfly with a time of 1:16.03.
Windham senior Morgan Farley finished fifth in the 200 medley with a time of 2:46.88. Farley finished third in the 500-freestyle with a 6:26.67 time.
Windham sophomore Maya Fitts had a 4:19.35 time in the 200 medley and finished sixth. She also finished sixth in the 500 freestyle with a 9:00.09 time.
“We need to have more snap in our stroke and when we’re tired,” said Small. “Our turns really start to fall apart ... we just got to make sure that when we’re tired some of the technical aspect of those turns are still there. These guys are working so hard, so impressed with them, they’ll come through with that.” <
