SYRACUSE – The Sherburne-Earlville swim team swam in the Section III, Class C championship on Wednesday at Max Newman Pool in Syracuse. S-E continues to drop times just before the state qualifier meet upcoming on Friday.
Senior Amon Van Alst continues to have an excellent final season as he broke S-E’s 100 butterfly record, which was previously set in 2019, as he swam a best 59.21 for second place. Amon will be swimming both the butterfly and the backstroke, where he finished third, at the state qualifier meet.
Amon, along with Parker McCracken, Ava Flanagan, and Lydia Larchar all joined together for the 200 individual medley relay and in the 200 freestyle relay. In the 200 medley, they took fourth place with a time of 2:05.63 and finished fifth in the freestyle relay (1:50.08). The four will swim the relays again on Friday.
McCracken, Flanagan, and Larchar also did well in their individual events. McCracken, a freshman, achieved personal bests in both the 100 breaststroke and in the 100 freestyle events. In the 100 breaststroke, he dropped seven seconds with a new best time of 1:15.63 for sixth place. He finished seventh in the 100 freestyle event with a new best time of 58.39.
Teammate Ava Flanagan also earned new best times in both the 500 freestyle and in the 100 butterfly. Flanagan was one of three girls in the meet to place in an individual event. She finished eighth in the 500 freestyle with a new personal best time of 6:23.61. She came in 11th place for the butterfly event with a best time of 1:12.37.
