Wildthings Win over the Dolphins
235-167
Nicole Johnson Breaks First Record of the Year!
In
the third meet of the dual meet season, the Wildthings hosted the
Dowden Terrace Dolphins.
The Wildthings dominated the meet from the start, with outstanding
strength in the younger age groups. The 8 & under girls swept
all of their events. The team won 9 of 12 relays and everyone who
came out to swim made an outstanding contribution.
Looking good Wildthings!!!
In an exciting
race for the 11-12 girls’ breaststroke win, Nicole Johnson dropped
more than a second off her best time to break a 20 year old record.
Nicole swam a 39.07.
Way to go Nicole!

Wildthings Lose First Meet to High Point
In Close Competition 203-199
The NVSL Season
opened with the Langley Wildthings losing to local competitors at
High Point Pool by only four points. In an exciting meet that went
down to the very last relay, the Wildthings were out in force with
great spirit and great performances. Three-quarters of the swims were
best times for Langley swimmers. The Wildthings won 21 of 38 events.
Unfortunately, this was not quite enough to hold off the High Point
swimmers.
