After a dominating 127-52 and 130-54 win over the Oskaloosa Indians and the Grinnell Tigers, the Boone Toreadors’ swim team hopes to keep the momentum going as they head into their conference meet.
The teams that will be in attendance are Charles City, Decorah, Grinnell, Newton, Vinton-Shellsburg, and Williamsburg Community. The meet will be held on Saturday, October 24 at Grinnell College. Diving gets underway at 10 am, and swimming starts at 1 pm.
Junior Erin Kokemiller is coming off of a strong performance in Boone on senior night as she broke a school record that had been standing for ten years, for the 200 meter Individual Medley. Her time was two minutes and twenty seconds.
“This week we have been tapering, to relax our muscles and get a little break before the meet,” said Kokemiller. “We are also hoping our 200 medley relay team can break a record at conference again this year.”
Last years team of Maddie Santi, Anne Marie Devries, Erin Kokemiller, and Kate Kokemiller broke the record for 200 medley relay. But just missed qualifying for state by .3 seconds.
Junior Maddie Santi is also coming off of an impressive night, as she accomplished a new personal record in the 100 meter backstroke with a time of one minute and seven seconds, deducting her time by a second.
Come out and support your Toreador swim team this Saturday as they look to take the conference meet by storm.
