Mike Vukovcan The Hopewell HS Swim team were in the pool last night as they took on rival Central Valley in a meet.
Once again, both Hopewell teams performed well despite being shorthanded. The Hopewell Girls team lost by the score of 47-41 and were competing without one of their fastest swimmers, senior Ava Yoder.
Meanwhile, the Hopewell boys finished with a 49-27 win.
Some of the highlights from the meet were the performance of freshman Evelyn Cagnon in the 500 free and Emma Driscoll in the 100 backstroke, both girls qualified for the upcoming MAC Tournament with their performances. Also, Tyler Oliver again improved his 100 Fly and is now only 2 tenths off his WPIAL cut, his personal best.
Also, Cassidy Bellemo (200 Free), Cagnon (500 free) and Joe Bulebush (500 free) all took off significant times in their events, each posting personal bests.
