Water- logged And Wrinkled Up before dawn, the girls' swim team plunged into the pool at the middle school many a fateful morning for yet an- other workout. Laps complet- ed, redressed, and hair barely blown-dry, the girls switched from stroking their arms and kicking their feet to running so that they would beat the bell announcing the start of the school day. Classes for them were nothing but a six hour break on dry land before head- ing back to the pool for another fix of chlorine, bloodshot eyes, and pruned fingers. The indi- vidual efforts of the 40 girls came together under co-cap- tains Deidre Freeman and Kim Baker, providing them with victories in 8 of their 9 meets, including a victory over New- town, their most difficult con- tender. With high spirits and unity, the WHS girls' swim team hoped to butterfly, breast- stroke, and freestyle towards a WCC title.
