“Swimming in my final race was a sort or surreal experience that I had envisioned in my mind but never really expected it to actually happen some day,” senior Dylan Johnson said. “I, personally, wish that I would have swam faster in a few of my races but I was overall pretty content with my times. Placing second at the state meet and breaking a Johnston record didn’t feel too bad, and I swam a lifetime best during my final race.”
Unfortunately, Dowling edged out Johnston by 4 points at the state meet.
“The team was a bit disappointed by the fact that we had been narrowly edged out of third place by Dowling, but overall our times were where we had expected them to be,” Johnson said. “We lost a strong senior class after last year and I believe that we really stepped up in terms of leadership, working hard, and filling the open spots left by last year’s seniors.”
