I3 UQ Earned Not having a home advantage was a disadvantage for the girls, swimming and diving team. Having to share time between the West High and Central High pools made things even tougher for a first-year team. The small number of swimmers out this year was also a disadvantage to the team. Our swimmers had to swim in more races which made them get tired more easily, said Jennifer Elvert. Kris Naae showed much potential for North in the coming years as she placed 2nd in Conference and 4th in District in the 50 yard freestyle and 4th in Conference Respect and District in the 100 yard freestyle. Naae also was undefeated in dual meets in the 100 yard freestyle and qualified for the state meet in two events. According to Coach Larry Swanson, one of the greatest assets to the team was Captain Amy Taylor. She was a good leader and well respected by her teammates, said Swanson. Throughout the season, Taylor learned about respect for other teams, Even though we were a small team and didn't win a meet, every team in the conference respected us as a team and they let us know. We really felt welcome. mvwdrzg K ., Strong dedication to attain perfect form enables Kris Naae to execute butterfly. Photo: D. Smit.
