In our first two meets it became readily apparent that this is a spirited and bonded team coming out of the gates. Athletes supported each other and honored their opponents with strong swims and not a few cheers for their competitors. This team is zany and fast - Let’s go Wolves!

Noticed in the first two meets:

Missed: Our Senior Captain, Caitlyn, has been under the weather. We send our best wishes and high hopes that she will be back with us soon as she is well. We need you Caitlyn!

Achieved Best Times (a rare thing this early in the season!): Drew, Nyle, Andrew, Brock, Evan, Theodore, Noah

Got the Duckie (First Place Finishes): Matthew x 4, Lelaina x 4, Khalyse, Andrew, Audrey L x 2, Keira x 4, Nate x 3, Zachary, Anna x 2, Evan x 2, Traci, Theo x 2, CJ,

Relay Magic: ERHS has won 5 out of 6 relay events in the first two meets. Notably, the boys Medley, broken into two competing relays, achieved times within a half second and two seconds of last year’s team at state.

Most exciting PR Race: Andrew and Noah duked out out to push under 24 seconds for the first time in a burner that ended in a tie and lots of happy splashing.

Welcome Back! We are happy to have Wyatt Keene back in the fold after a three year absence.

Congratulations to Phoenix Pauli for participating in his first ever meets and throwing down some pretty darn good baseline performances. It will be a blast to watch him grow.

Breaststroke Power: Never has ERHS had such a collection of competitive breaststrokers. Kudos to (under 1:10: Evan, Nate, Laina, Noah, Matthew, Andrew, and CJ; (and under 1:20: Khalyse, Megyn, Caitlyn, Anna, Audrey T, Colin and Nyle; for rising in this most technical of events.

Rock the House Moment! The team cheering on South’s lone breaststroker. He was pushed through the back half by sonic waves.

These are just a few things that have made us proud the first two meets. Of course there were many more, and surely some that I have missed so if you would like to share a plus, please just add it in the comments.

Chugiak v Eagle River at Chugiak

We had a GREAT kick start to the high school season last night with a double victory over our friends at Chugiak High.

Scores: Girls: ERHS 134 - CHS 28; Boys ERHS 87 - CHS 82 Whew!

Noticed:

Last, first meet for our seniors: Sasha, Bryn, Sophia and Reese.

First, first meet for our large and talented freshman team: Brock, Andrew, Anna, Zachary, Megyn, Audrey L, Colin, Audrey and, Everleigh

Back in the Saddle: Recovering from and working through injury is a long and challenging process. After many months away Bryn and Keira stepped up with some solid swims to start the season. Way to go Bryn and Keira!

Race of the Evening: Our most exciting race of the evening came in the 500 free with our freshman energy bundle, Colin, only JUST outpacing Luke from Chugiak by less than .5. Both boys broke the 5:20 barrier for the first time. Expect more great races from these two!

You’ve come a long way! Congrats to Everliegh who only started swimming a couple of months ago, and Jedd who is a wrestler stepping into swim competition for the first time. Everleigh swam a very respectable 34 in her first 50 and completed a legal 100 breast (always a challenge for new swimmers).

Achieving Personal Records: (Always very challenging in early high school meets, just ask a senior!): Theodore (200 IM & 100 Back), Zachary Jacobs (200 IM & 500 Free), Megyn Linstid (50 free & 100 Breast), Andrew Deisseroth (50 free), Noah Unks (100 fly & 100 breast), Andy King (100 Fly), Drew Richmond (100 free), Colin Russian (500 free), Jillian DelaCruz (100 breast),

Biggest Drop: Zachary Jacobs shedding 11 seconds in the IM and nearly 30 in the 500.
