PHS swimming strong in Worland

Posted

Two trips to Worland led to strong times out of the Powell Panther swim and dive team, finishing runner-up in a quad on Friday before a third place finish with a smaller squad on Saturday.

In the first meet the Panthers were once again paced by Gabe Rose, who placed first in the 200 IM (2:18.08) along with a second place finish in the 100 fly (1:00.41).

Adam Williams earned his final qualifying standard in the 200 free (2:05.79), placing second in that event alongside a second place finish in the 100 free (54.61).

“Coming out of Christmas break we are doing pretty well,” coach Stephanie Warren said. “We have some fast kids swimming pretty well and our others are dropping times.”

Powell also got a pair of third place finishes from Hugh Carpenter in the 500 free (5:57.44) and the 100 breast (1:16.15), and Taggart Shumway led the way in diving with a third place finish (175.1).

“They overall did really well,” Warren said. “That was a better result than the previous meets we’ve seen them.”

Powell finished second with 290 points, well behind first place Riverton with 389 points and just ahead of Cody with 287. Worland placed fourth with 99.

Returning to Worland on Saturday the Panthers were slightly shorthanded, with several of their top competitors not in attendance.

Rose still led the way with a second place finish in the 100 fly (1:00.58), alongside Jon Hawley who placed second in diving (199.35).

Will Fuller finished third in the 100 back with a 1:02.78.

“We are seeing some really good things for where we are at this time of year,” Warren said.

Several teams expected to attend canceled due to weather conditions.

Riverton won once again with 377 points, Cody was second with 311, Powell was third with 216 points, Worland was fourth with 129 points and 4A Jackson was fifth with 118.

Next up for the Panthers will be a triangular in Cody against the Broncs and Worland on Thursday.

Following that the Panthers will head to Fremont County to take part in the Lander Invitational on Saturday where Powell is expected to see new competition.

“Excited to see some more competition there,” Warren said. “It’ll be good to see more of who we are going to see at state.”

Next week the Panthers will return home for senior night on Tuesday, Jan. 23, at the Powell Aquatic Center.
