| Cassandra Bohnsack, Lexie Marthaler and Hannah Berg cheer on Morgan Marthaler in a 100 breaststroke preliminary heat in Morris on Thursday. Morgan shaved 2.5 seconds off of her season-best time while qualifying for the championship finals. |
Can you believe it? In 94 percent of the section preliminary races by Sauk Centre swimming and diving team members on Thursday in Morris, season-best records were broken. Two school records also fell: 200 medley relay team of Emily Mensen, Morgan Marthaler, Danielle Banal and Alyssa Kohorst plus Kali Sayovitz in the 500 freestyle.
That's the highest percentage for such a feat in head coach James Schreiner's tenure. Read the full list of season-best performances in the Sauk Centre Herald.
Here's video from the end of one of the 500 freestyle preliminary races, where Sauk Centre's Jenna Kill finishes the home stretch. She is greeted by fellow teammate Kali Sayovitz, who had just set the Sauk Centre school record in that event.
