Congratulations – High school swimming season in Indiana concluded this past weekend with the IHSAA Boys State Championships and it was a great weekend – and great season – for the WTSC boys. Congratulations to David Diercks who made his first career Futures cut in the 100 Backstroke at the State meet. Chance Buckles, Brody Friend and Colin Parker finished their high school careers with several appearances on the podium at State. And Jack Steadham and Sam Wolfe made their first appearances in the State meet and had outstanding swims in their respective events. Way to go to all WTSC boys on their high school seasons and good luck over the next few weeks.
