The swim team pushed for the win against Ransom Everglades.

Senior Dylan Bardales pushed through the last lap of the 100-meter breaststroke event at the Oct. 6 Senior Meet against Ransom, using whatever bit of energy he had left. This was his fourth event of the day, and Bardales wanted to finish strong.

“Breaststroke was one of my last events, so I was pretty tired when the time came to swim it,” Bardales said.

As Bardales climbed out of the pool, his teammates cheered him and hurried over to congratulate him, patting him on the back for his strong performance. According to Bardales, practice made all the difference.

“After putting in so much effort into practices, seeing the results at meets is incredibly satisfying,” said Bardales.

And this was also true for his teammates as the team dominated over Ransom with a 189-96 win, making this their 13th successful meet of their season.
