CROOKSTON GIRL’S SWIMMING WITH THREE TOP-EIGHT FINISHES IN SECTION 8A PRELIMS

The Crookston Pirate Girl’s Swimming team traveled to Detroit Lakes to compete in the Section 8A Swimming Tournament. Friday was preliminary day which determines who will compete in the Finals on Saturday. The top eight in each event will advance to the Championship in their respective events, while the next eight, or placers 9-16, will be in the consolation final tomorrow.

Naomi Olson was the lone Pirate swimmer to make the top eight in an individual event. She placed eighth in the 100 yard butterfly posting a time nearly equal to her seed time. Naomi also is a part of the two relays in which the Pirates finished in the top eight. The Pirates placed seventh in both the 200 yard medley relay and the 200 yard freestyle events. The other three girls joining Olson in the two relay events are Mackenzie Aamoth, Claire Oman, and Chloe Boll.

Mackenzie Aamoth will also compete in the consolation finals tomorrow in the 200 yard freestyle and the 100 yard backstroke.
Chloe Boll will get to compete in the consolation finals in the 50 yard freestyle and the 100 yard freestyle events.
Naomi Olson will add to her day on Saturday with the chance to compete in the consolation finals in the grueling 500 yard freestyle event.

The top eight finishers will compete in the Finals on Saturday starting around 2:00 p.m. with the consolation events starting leading up to the Finals. The top two places in each event qualifies for the Minnesota State Class A Girl’s Swimming Meet at the University of Minnesota Aquatic Center in Minneapolis.
