Fishers – Second-ranked Hamilton Southeastern won 9 of 12 events at the 2008 Hoosier Crossroads Conference Swimming and Diving Championships to easily out-distance runner-up Zionsville 519 to 296 on January 12th.
The host Royals set six new conference records in the win. In fact, they won all three relays in record time. The team of Maegan O’Conner, Christina Jacobs, Lindsay Rogers, and Carly Mercer set a new Hamilton Southeastern pool record in the 200 yard medley relay with a time of 1:46.27.
Southeastern’s three individual conference records were set by senior Lindsay Rogers and sophomore Carly Mercer. Rogers, who will swim in this year’s Olympic Trials, set new conference marks in both the 200 yard I.M. and the 100 yard breaststroke. She also was on two of the relay teams that broke conference records.
Mercer claimed her new conference record in the 50 yard freestyle with a time of 23.70. And like Rogers, she also was a part of two conference record relay teams. In addition, her winning time of 51.72, while not a new conference record, was over two seconds faster than that of teammate Erin Kelley who finished second.
Hamilton Southeastern coach Andy Pedersen had this team say about all the new conference marks established by his swimmers.
“I think it’s just the pride they have in our conference,” said Pedersen. Last year this was the best swimming conference in the state. We beat the MIC at the state meet, and we take a lot of pride in that. And I think they take a lot of pride in that record board; and I
just think they were ready to go today.”
Harrison senior Jenny Connolly, who just happened to be celebrating her 18th birthday on Jan. 12, joined Hamilton Southeastern’s Rogers and Mercer as double individual event winners.
Connolly, who will also compete at the Olympic Trials, had an amazing day. In fact, she set new conference and pool records in both the 100 yard butterfly and the 100 yard backstroke. She won the 100 yard butterfly with a time of 55.63. Then, she came back later in the meet and captured the 100 yard backstroke with a time 55.11. She also broke her own school record in both events, which she had established prior at last year’s state meet.
The Zionsville Eagles recorded 20 Top 10 finishes at the meet to finish second, 49 points ahead of third place Lafayette Jeff.
“It was really good and a little surprising to be honest with you,” said Zionsville coach Scott Kubly on his team’s performance. “We’ve had quite a few meets here in the last seven days, and are times just keep getting slower and slower. And today we just kind of breakout and have the best meet of the season. It was incredible; the kids did a fantastic job on both sides, and I’m proud of them.”
Sophomore Alex Brennan (200 yard freestyle: 1:57.56) and Sophomore Katie Newcomer (100 yard backstroke 1:00.46) each set new Zionsville school records at the meet.
