County labor GL teacher recognized as rising star deals settled By ALAN MILLER alanmiller@lsj.com

By ALAN MILLER | alanmiller@lsj.com EATON CO. — Four down, three to go. The Eaton County Commission approved three more labor contract settlements at their January meeting, covering unions which represent command officers in the Sheriff’s Department, emergency dispatchers and workers in the county Animal Control Division. With a settlement already reached with sheriff’s deputies, only three more labor agreements remain to be completed. County Controller John Fuentes said negotiations are continuing to reach new contracts for maintenance workers, youth facility workers and supervisors in the emergency dispatch center. The four completed contract settlements cover a three year period and replace contracts which expired Sept. 30, 2009. No retroactive adjustments were agreed to in the settlements. Effective with the ratification, employees are to receive a “ratification bonus,” a one-time payment equal to 1.5 percent of their annual base rate, and employees will begin paying 5 percent of their health care premiums. During the third year of the contract, beginning Oct. 1, 2011, covered employees will receive a 1.5 percent increase to their base pay. The agreements also contain language simplifying the grievance resolution process. Fuentes said he is hoping to reach similar agreements with the three remaining groups. The seven labor agreements cover the approximately one half of county employees in bargaining units. The remaining non-union employees are already paying a share of their health care insurance premium, but have not yet received any pay adjustments. Fuentes said he expects the commission to review non-union employee compensation after agreements have been completed with all bargaining units.

blood test for Grand Ledge High School fourth year journalism teacher Sara Beth O’Connor might reveal newspaper ink ﬂowing in her veins. The latest evidence of this would be the Journalism Education Association’s naming her one of 15 journalism teachers across the nation considered “Rising Stars.” O’Connor’s roots in journalism go back to her childhood, when her father was sports editor and her mother the “obits girl” at the Observer-Eccentric newspapers in the Detroit metro area. She attended Michigan State University’s journalism school with a State News scholarship. She also worked as a staff writer for the Midland Daily News. She decided to teach journalism at the high school level because, in her view, future news people need to understand journalistic ethics at an early part of their training, instead of waiting until the senior year of college, and because “I have a passion to tell people’s stories.” Her teaching philosophy is to offer advice and guidance while students learn by doing. “This is their product. They decide what goes in. They write the stories. There is no censorship,” O’Connor said. “Every single kid has a story to tell.” The student writers of The Comets’ Tale, the Grand Ledge High School paper, have taken the opportunity to cover subjects not often seen in high school publications. A recent issue offered a lengthy interview with a staff member dying of cancer, and a report of a bisexual student at another school

Grand Ledge High School journalism teacher Sara Beth O’Connor talks with student Myshel Bisard about an upcoming story. O’Connor was recently named by the Journalism Education Association as one of 15 “Rising stars” in the nation among high school journalism teachers. ﬁghting for acceptance from the school administration. An example of one of her students’ works has been published as a news story on page 3. Before beginning her teaching career, O’Connor was recognized with a future teacher award from the JEA. After learning of the latest award, she said she declined the opportunity to attend the association’s conference in Anaheim, Calif., and instead asked to receive it at next year’s conference in Minneapolis, Minn., because “That will allow some students to attend.” O’Connor was the only Michigan

teacher recognized as a Rising Star this year. Other recipients were from California (3), Colorado (3), Texas (2), North Carolina (2), Kentucky, Kansas, Connecticut and Indiana. The purpose of the JEA, according to their web site is “To support free and responsible scholastic journalism by proving resources and educational opportunities, by promoting professionalism, by encouraging and rewarding student excellence and teacher achievement, and by fostering an atmosphere which encompasses diversity yet builds unity.”

Matthews ﬁnalist in Novi

3 Grand Ledge Independent

By MYSHEL BISARD Comets’ Tale staff Grand Ledge High School

GRAND LEDGE - Grand Ledge Superintendant Steve Matthews is one of two ﬁnalists for the superintendent’s job in the Detroit-area suburb of Novi. Matthews said he loves his job in Grand Ledge, but he still needs to make the best decision for his family. “It’s a professional opportunity,” Matthews said. “I enjoy Grand Ledge, but I need to examine the opportunity.” The Grand Ledge school board is not in any hurry to lose Matthews, according to a board member. “He’s a real asset in Grand Ledge,” School Board President Don Symonds said. Novi has higher tax rates, and they can afford to pay Matthews more than Grand Ledge can.

Here are some comparisons between the Grand Ledge Public Schools and the Novi Community Schools, where Grand Ledge Superintendent Steve Matthews is being considered for the Superintendent’s position. “This is an example of what happens when schools receive unequal funding,” Symonds said. There will be a ﬁnal

round of interviews on Jan. 27. The ﬁnal decision is expected to be made in early February.

Name change coming

Alan Miller

This Felpausch sign, in place on the corner of Saginaw and Hartel since 1962, will be coming down to complete the change in ownership of the Grand Ledge grocery store, one of two still under the Felpausch banner. The store, purchased several years ago by Spartan Stores, will become a Family Fare grocery, said Spartan spokesperson Jeanne Norcross. “Only the name will change,” she said. “Everything else will remain the same.” The change, Norcross said, is so all of the Spartan stores on the west side of Michigan will have the same name, allowing the company to run all of their advertisements under the Family Fare banner.

Area free health care offered

By ALAN MILLER alanmiller@lsj.com

GRAND LEDGE — This year, on Friday and Saturday, Feb. 4 and 5, a group of area dentists, optometrists, chiropractors, a massage therapist and a physician will be opening their offices for free care to people unable to pay for it. Some providers will serve patients on a firstcome first-served basis, while others will require appointments. Grand Ledge dentist Dr. William Brooks, the event’s organizer, said the program is intended for the poor and uninsured, but eligibility is on the honor system, with no questions asked. For the past 23 years, Brooks has been organizing local health care providers to give some of their time to provide care to those unable to afford it. He said it began when he read an article about “doctors with a heart” in a dental journal, and decided to try it locally. “I have been so blessed to have grown up in the Grand Ledge area,” Dr. Brooks said.

Friday, Feb. 4 and Saturday, Feb. 5 Dentists:

Dr. Dennis Sullivan, 8 a.m. to noon Friday Feb. 4. 416 River St., Grand Ledge. No appointment necessary. Dr. Bill Brooks and Dr. Todd Baum, 8 a.m. to noon Saturday, Feb. 5. 118 S. Bridge St., Grand Ledge. (517) 627-4027. No appointment necessary.

DELTA TWP. - Retiring Delta Township Fire Chief Victor Hilbert, a man of many talents, may be the only fire chief with a master’s degree in music and early resumes filled with TV appearances singing bass in a vocal quartet. Hilbert spent 22 years in education, either teaching music or serving as an administrator in a series of Seventh-day Adventist schools in Virginia, Maryland and Minnesota before his full-time fire career. He directed choirs and gave voice lessons, too. There was always a firefighter connection, however, that went back to his first on-call job at age 18 in Lancaster, Mass. “I was the youngest firefighter in the oldest town in Worcester County,” Hilbert said. “At 19 I was the youngest lieutenant in the history of the department.” He continued to serve in volunteer departments at different times throughout his education career. Former township supervisor Joe Drolett, who first met Hilbert on the roof of

“What’s your game plan?” Hilbert asked the captain, who replied that he was going to go inside, see what was burning, then come out and report to the chief. By this time, Hilbert saw the driver of the ladder truck was climbing by himself, axe in hand and Grand Ledge trucks go by, headed to cover the Delta station. “(Eventually,) we had five or six trucks and six firefighters, plus me,” Hilbert said. “I scratched my head and asked myself ‘What is going on?’” It wasn’t that the firefighters weren’t skilled at their jobs - they were very skilled. What they needed was a game plan.

The incident was the catalyst for a series of directions later known as “Vic-O-Grams” that outlined operating procedures designed to protect both property and people. “We now have a very sophisticated incident command system,” Hilbert said, one which has cut down significantly on what he calls “cellar savers,” which are fires after which only the structures’ basements remain. It includes a 360-degree walk around the fire by an officer before any orders are given.

Tony M’s during a blaze, was the one who eventually hired him for the chief’s job in 1984. Drolett was impressed when Hilbert laid out specific plans for how he would improve the department during his interview process, something no other applicant had done. Twenty-six years later, Drolett says Hilbert has done everything he said he would do, making Delta one of the premier departments in the process. Hilbert says he remembers well the day when he asked a captain what standard operating procedures the department followed. “He started to shake,” Hilbert said. “(Then he said,) ‘Chief, we don’t have any.’” Hilbert also tells the story of a fire at an auto body shop in the building across Saginaw Hwy. from what is now Funtyme Adventure Park. First at the scene were a captain and a driver in a fire truck, Hilbert says, followed by three other firefighters, one each on a ladder truck, a second engine and a compressor truck.

Hilbert is also proud of his role in building two new fire stations, one across from Waverly High School, the other the main one next to the Delta Patrol substation. He’s also overseen the upgrade of Delta’s fire equipment over the years, starting with two new fire

trucks around 1985. “Through the years I’ve bought close to 40 vehicles,” Hilbert said, adding that he got a deal on the latest purchase by teaming up with Meridian Township. He’s also supported hiring more women, especially since he was struck by

the fact that there were only 35 female ﬁreﬁghters in the 13,500-person New York City Fire Department when 9/11 happened. So Hilbert has made sure every physical task in the entry level hiring test is jobrelated and thus fair to everyone. He has also made

GRAND LEDGE - Give these kids some credit. Growing pains don’t come without a price. First year head coach Scott Lewis and his team are feeling the effects of the pains but they’re playing hard to work through them. Last week was a grueling and painful week as the Comets fell at neighboring rival Waverly 58-43 before being crushed by visiting East Lasnsing last Tuesday night by a score of 81-60. “Both Waverly and East Lansing have outstanding teams,” said Lewis. “I was proud of the way the our kids hung in there.”

After a low scoring ﬁrst period in which the Comets led 8-6 the Comets hit 5 of 6 free throws and got scoring from six different players in the second period to take a 22-19 lead into the half-time break. Waverly then found the mark in the second half as they scored 22 third period points to take a 41-34 lead into the ﬁnal period of play. Senior center Jimmie Cotter scored seven of his 11 points down the stretch but it wasn’t enough. Steadily improving junior Joe Little led the attack with 14 points followed by senior guard Dalton Reust, junior guard Jordan Loredo and senior forward Adam Gulick all added 4 points each and sophomore guard

They’ve got excellent shooting and great speed. They’re just a well balanced team, But if you looked out on the ﬂoor our kids didn’t quit and they played hard right to the end.

Heartsick but strong, gymnasts pull through

On Jan. 17, the Grand Ledge gymnastics team lost a beloved team mom, Anita Byington, mother of Alexis Byington, due to injuries in a car accident. The three-time state championship team was shocked; Anita Byington was Booster Club President for Grand Ledge gymnastics, and was one of the strongest supporters of the girls. However, the following Wednesday, the team was still scheduled to host a meet versus Jackson Lumen Christi. The girls managed to pull together and stay strong for each other. They wore red ribbons in their hair in honor of Anita; red was her favorite color. As the meet proceeded, the girls kept their spirits high. Junior Christine Wilson had an excellent performance; she scored a solid 9.25 on vault, and a 9.25 on bars. She nailed her beam with a 9.5 and had a fantastic floor, with a score of 9.6. For her all around total, she received her season’s high score with a 37.6. A newcomer to the team, yet already proving her talent, Presley Allison competed all four events as well. She scored a nice 8.55 on the vault, an 8.875 on the bars, an 8.3 on the beam, and an outstanding 9.55 on the floor. Her all around totaled at 35.275. Senior Autumn Mulder also had a great performance that night, with an amazing bar routine, at a 9.25 and an 8.1 on the beam. Sophomore Lauren Clark has been stepping up as well; she had a fantastic beam score of 9.325 and an entertaining floor performance, which gave her a 9.4. Coach Duane Haring

said, “Lauren had come a long way this season so far, and we’re starting to see her confidence shine through.” Sophomore Sara Peltier has been making many improvements tool Haring says that her new skills this season are coming along great and that her hard work is starting to pay off. Peltier scored an 8.25 on the bars, an 8.85 on the beam, and an excellent 9.5 on the floor. Other key contributors for the evening included junior, Lexi Miller, with a nice 8.0 on vault, and a strong bar routine. Freshman Taylor Stevens also had a great meet with a 7.55 on bars, 7.55 on beam, and a 7.85 on the floor. Sophomore Jessica Neimeyer had a terrific vault with an 8.0. Freshman Alyssa Murphy tied with her, also receiving a solid 8.0 on the vault. Another freshman, Madison Huffman, also scored a nice 7.35 on the vault. The highlight of the meet however, was the last performance of the evening. Alexis Byington decided that she wanted to compete floor that evening. As she got out on the floor, taking her beginning pose, the crowd watched in awe and amazement at her incredible mental strength, and gracious presence. As she tumbled from corner to corner, across the floor, sticking each stunning pass, her teammates, her coaches, her family, and all the fans went wild. She had a flawless routine to say the least, and she earned an awesome 9.8. As she saluted the judges, ending her routine, her teammates rushed the floor and swarmed her in a bittersweet group-hug. Tears fell, and the crowd

GRAND LEDGE - Like the tough old cow hands of Rawhide the Grand Ledge wrestling team’s theme could be “head em up and move em out.” Last week the No. 9 state ranked wrestling team moved out a few others as they won the seven-team Holland West Ottawa Tournament with a team score of 236.5. Not only did they win the team title, they finished nearly 100 points ahead of fine second place Kalamazoo Central team that scored 154 points. Host Holland West Ottawa was third with 149 points and Holland fourth with 145. “The kids are just doing a great job and have been all season long,” head coach Steve Delaney said. The Comets placed eight individual champions atop the winners platform beginning with 103 pound freshmasn Bryan Jones who is off to a great high school career. Another freshman, Martin Rodriguez stood atop the winners steps with a first place medal at

112 pounds. The same was true of freshman Billy Reed who went undefeated for the day and won the 119 pound weight class title. “Billy has been a great surprise for us. He’s 15-5 as a varsity wrestler and has just really been a hard worker and learner,” added Delaney. Junior Freddie Rodriguez also has been just outstanding since beginning the new year at 125 pounds. Rodriguez went undefeated for the day and was named as the tournament’s Outstasnding Wrestler Award winner. “Freddie just dominated. He’s really fun to watch and just a great wrestler,” Delaney praised. 140 pound senior Curtiss Brownell also did a super job for the day as he won the title in his weight class. He was followed by senior 145 pound Josh Vaillancourt. Both he and Brownell have been major contributors to the program as has been 152 pound senior Korey Knapp who also carried home the 152 pound crown. At 215 pounds sophomore Corey Arnouts again was superb as he won his weight class and con-

Icers battle injuries, Patriots in 1-0 win By SCOTT YOSHONIS syoshonis@lsj.com

EAST LANSING - The Capital Area Patriots outshot Grand Ledge-Waverly by more than a 2-to-1 margin, but came out on the short end of a 1-0 score in the ﬁrst game of the CAAC High

School Hockey Showcase at Suburban Ice on Jan. 22 Sterling Barnas scored the only goal of the game for the Comet-Warriors, and the ﬁrst of his varsity career, assisted by Chris White ﬁve minutes into the third period. Before that, the Patriots,

a co-op team comprised of players from Charlotte, Lansing Catholic, Lansing Christian, Mason and Potterville, controlled the run of play for much of the contest. After being out-shot 9-3 in the ﬁrst period, thanks in part to Grand Ledge-Waverly having the only full power play

of the period, the Patriots had 24 shots on goal to the Comet-Warriors’ 4 in the last two. Grand Ledge-Waverly coach Brian Clifford said that the win was especially important due to his having seven players out for various reasons.

“To lose the top four or ﬁve scorers on the team is difﬁcult to recover, but the kids all pulled together and got a very big win for us,” Clifford said. “We’ve only got eight forwards and four defensemen, but Austin (Hull) been great in goal, so he’s keeping us in the game.”

After a somewhat uneventful ﬁrst period, Patriots defenseman David Peck had his team’s ﬁrst real scoring chance on the power play 20 seconds into the second, skating in on the GL-W net on the left wing and across See

Thank You

A heartfelt thank you to our family, friends and neighbors for the tremendous outpouring of support as we grieve the loss of our beloved Mary. We were overwhelmed by the many acts of kindness during Mary’s hospital stay and those that continue to this day. Your extremely generous contributions to the kids’ college fund and many items of food are greatly appreciated and will not be forgotten. Neff and St. Michael schools have been outstanding in their kind efforts. Our community has been a great help at a time of unbearable loss as has the Showspan community in Grand Rapids and across the country. Fr. Jim and many members of the St. Michael’s community held us together when that seemed an impossible task. Many wonderful moms have provided transportation, meals, child care and moral support.

We are grateful for the caring competence of Dr. John Armstrong and the staff of Sparrow’s CCU. May God bless each of you.

RAISING HEALTHY DRUG-FREE KIDS When referring to Drug-Free, I’m not speaking of street drugs but rather, overthe-counter and prescription medications. We live in a chemical world. And we teach our children to do the same.

LJ-0100061782

January 30, 2011

Consider this; as a baby, your teeth hurt, or you had fever or colic, and the people who love you the most gave you a drug to ease your suffering. In grade school, you fell and the people who love you gave you a drug to end your pain. In high school, you broke up with your girl/boyfriend and it was painful; the people who love you the most gave you a drug to ease your agony. In college, you didn’t get the grades you wanted and the people who love you gave you a drug to help. And then there are the colds, flu’s, etc. and again the people, who love you, gave you a vaccine or drug to protect you. Scary isn’t it? Unfortunately, the public has been indoctrinated that this is the way it should be, - that medications make it “all OK,” that drugs are good for you. There is something wrong with that concept! As a matter of fact, latest research indicates that properly prescribed medications are the fourth leading cause of death. Not OK! Recently, however, there has been a new paradigm or shift in peoples thinking emerging. Most people now are no longer happy taking drugs and are beginning to question their doctor. This is a good thing! (Most of the doctors I have spoken with wish their patients would take more responsibility for their health.) The buzzword that is heard now is WELLNESS and VITALISM. Parents are beginning to realize that the health of their children comes only from a normally functioning body and not from a prescription pad. Most drugs do not correct a problem but simply change your body chemistry and cover-up your symptoms. Have you noticed that drug companies are advertising prescription drugs in popular magazines and suggesting that you ask you doctor to prescribe them to you. In 1998, the pharmaceutical companies spent $12.7 billion dollars promoting these drugs to you and your family..

Doctors of Chiropractic have been teaching patients that only a well functioning body heals. In order to have a well functioning body, the nervous system that controls it also has to function normally. Chiropractors deal with interference to this normal function. We call this interference a Vertebral Subluxation. It can have serious health consequences. It is for this reason that I feel it is imperative for children to be checked for vertebral subluxations. If you would like additional information on how to raise a healthy drug-free child, you are welcome to attend our Special Appointment offered every Tuesday at 6:00pm. I’d be happy to help!

the face of goal, forcing a tough pad save by CometWarrior goalie Austin Hull. Tory Brown made an endto-end rush five minutes later, getting behind the Grand Ledge-Waverly defense and putting a wrist shot to the short side, but Hull turned it away with his blocker to keep the game scoreless. Barnas finally broke through with 10:02 left in the third, when White faked a shot to the right of Patriots goalie Dan Liesman and found Barnas at the far post. His first-timer gave Liesman no chance, and made the score 1-0. The Patriots pressed forward for the equalizer, and very nearly got it with 1:30 left in the game, when Brown and Jeff Smith had a 2-on-1 opportunity, but Hull made big saves on both Brown’s slap shot and the shot off of the rebound, to secure the win. Hull finished with 27 saves in the game.

Despite a brief power-play in the final 19 seconds of the game, the Patriots couldn’t find the net and fell one goal short of what would have been their first league win of the season. Patriots coach Pat Daley said that he was happy with everything but the result. “It’s always disappointing not to win, but it was a great effort by our kids,” Daley said. “We got more shots and we dominated a lot of the game. It was a great effort, but hats off to their goalkeeper, he kept them in the game and made a lot of saves.” Previously, the CometWarriors skated to a 1-1 tie with Holt on Jan. 21. Brad Kurzynowski scored the lone GL-W goal in the game on a second-period power play, assisted by Drew Isaacson, and Hull made 26 saves in the contest. Grand Ledge-Waverly will play in the Durand Invitational Tournament in FLint on Friday, Feb. 4 and Saturday, Feb. 5.

JV girl cagers having promising season

GRAND LEDGE - The Grand Ledge JV lady Comets returned from Christmas break with a 3-2 record and traveled to Owosso on Tuesday, Jan. 3, to play the Trojans. At the end of the ﬁrst half, with four Comets scoring, the Comets were in the lead 15-9. The Comets returned from the half time break with a renewed passion for defensive play, holding the Trojans to only 2 points the entire 3rd quarter. While holding the Trojans to just 9 points in the second half, the Comets poured on the offense with 10 players contributing to the total score. The Comets were victorious over the Owosso Trojans with a score of 38-18. High scorers for the Comets were Codie Drake with 10 points, Emily Puffpaff and Lauren Rambo with 5 points. Rambo’s points were hard won as she made 3 of 4 from the foul line.Rounding out the scoring were Karlie Lambie, Rowland and Lauren Bachert with 4 each , Arianna Radashaw, Anna Hulbert, Tess Huelskamp and Jessica Burg each contributed 2 points to the ﬁnal score.

Vs. Livonia Ladywood Blazers

In a rare Wednesday night game the Comets hosted the Livonia Ladywood Blazers Jan. 5. A very physical ﬁrst half of play ended with both teams in the double bonus and the Comets trailing 16-18.Despite an early

3rd quarter scoring surge by the Blazers the Comets regained the lead 26-25 to end the third quarter. Led in scoring by sophomore Jessica Burg the Comets played with conﬁdence and closed out the game defeating the visiting Blazers from Livonia 44-39. Jessica Burg lead all scoring with 15 points, including 9 points from outside the 3 point arc. Codie Drake contributed 11 points to the Comets effort. Also scoring for the Comets were Lauren Rambo with 7, Tess Huelskamp with 5, Lauren Bachert, Kelsey Rambo and Olivia Fisher all also contributed 2 points to the ﬁnal score. The JV Lady Comets are coached by Beth Perez. The win over Livoinia Ladywood improved the JV’s record to 5 and 2.

Vs. Okemos

On a stormy January night, the Grand Ledge JV Lady Comets ventured to Okemos to play the Chieftains. The first quarter score of 9-6 found the Chieftain fans the quietest in our recent memory. Chieftain turnovers led to an offensive spurt for the Comets in the 2nd quarter, ending in a 17-11 lead for the visiting Comets. Despite Tess Huelskamp delivering 4 defensive shooting blocks, the 2nd half found the Lady Comets losing their lead and their fire, likely the result of 3 tough games in 3 days. The Comets left Okemos with a final score of 32-42 and their first loss

Momentum shifted in the second period, with the Trojans taking a 21-18 lead. Coach Perez motivated the team at half-time, and after a hard fought third quarter, the Comets were out on top again 30-28. The Lady JV Comets turned

up the heat, offensively and defensively, and took over in the fourth quarter to emerge victorious with a ﬁnal score of 49-41. Scoring for the Comets was Lauren Bachert 20 points, Codie Drake 14 points, Karlie Lambie 5 points, Jessica Burg and Kelsey Rowland with 4 points each and Haley Simon with 2 points.Current team record is 8-3. - Team submitted

Swimming, diving team ﬁnishes busy week GRAND LEDGE - The varsity Grand Ledge Swimming and Diving team ﬁnished off a busy week by dropping a close decision to the league favorite at Okemos and grabbing the 2nd Place trophy at the prestigious Haslett Invitational. After a tough week of practice the team jumped into action and were narrowly edged by the Chieftains of Okemos, 82-103. The team was paced by freshman Xinghao Wang and senior Eric Bayley as Wang swam to victories in the 100 Butterlfy (54.67) and 100 Breaststroke (1:02.65).

Bayley was fantastic in his own rite as he logged a victory in the 200 Freestyle (1:54.59) and a 2nd place finish in the 100 Backstroke (1:01.80). Senior captain Chris Cornell also had a great performance as he placed 2nd in the 200 Individual Medley with a lifetime best time of 2:15.16. Junior Zack Aungst also had a great meet as he sprinted to a 3rd place in the 100 Freestyle (55.41). Finally, sophomore Greg DeWitt teamed with Bayley to finish off a 1-2 finish in the 200 Free for the home team in a time of

1:58.51. DeWitt returned later to notch a victory in the 500 Freestyle in 5:17.17. Capping the week was the the teams very strong performance in the Haslett Invitational. The hosting Vikings score of 439.5 was just enough to outpace the short handed Comets who scored 386 points. Xinghao Wang again led the way as he swam to 2 Meet and Pool records in the 200 IM (2:05.28) and 100 Breaststroke (1:03.26) respectively. Junior Neil Wilkes continues to swim very well as he placed

5th in the 200 Freestyle and 7th in the 500 Freestyle. Eric Bayley also showed up quite nicely with a 3rd and 2nd place ﬁnish in the 200 Free and 500 Free events. Senior captain Mike Mandley had his best meet of the season as he notched best times in both the IM and 100 Breast to place 6th and 5th respectively. Perhaps the top individual performance of the day was reserved for senior Chris Cornell who swam to a 2nd place ﬁnish in the 100 Breaststroke in 1:08.31. The team aspect certainly shined brightly in this meet as

well as the 200 Medley Relay team of Eric Bayley, Chris Cornell, Xinghao Wang and sophomore Evan Ilieff swam to a season best time of 1:49.00 and a 2nd place finish. The 200 Freestyle Relay team of Zack Aungst, Cornell, Greg DeWitt and Ilieff also swam a season best time and finished 3rd. Finally the the 400 Freestyle Relay team of Bayley, Aungst, Wilkes and Wang completed the scoring for the Comets with their 2nd place finish. - Team submitted
