“We are thrilled that the girls beat Barberton,” Tallmadge head coach Julie Headrick said. “We had improvement in times and many positives in the meet.
“Balazs continues to impress me with her abilities, while Ingersoll, Spencer, Thompson and Kozy all gave performances that contributed to our team success.
“Brittany DiFiore anchored a strong come-from-behind second-place finish in the 200 free relay [other members included Kozy, freshman Sam Ballard and junior Jenna DiFiore]. Jenna DiFiore also stepped up to compete in the 200 individual medley, which helped the team earn more points toward our victory.
“The boys scored the most points that they have in a meet, therefore, we still view the meet as successful. Individual performances continue to improve. The 200 free relay should be competitive in any meet.”
The swim teams are scheduled to compete in a double dual meet with Mantua Crestwood and league foe Cloverleaf Dec. 28 at Wooster High School. The meet is set to begin at 1 p.m.
They are scheduled to participate in the Cloverleaf Invitational Jan. 2 at Wooster High School. That meet is set to begin at 10 a.m.
