Junior Alex Knodel was the only double winner for the Lady Pioneers with her wins in the 200 Individual Medley (2:31.79) and the 100 Breaststroke (1:18.16). Knodel has been a very strong swimmer upfront for the Pioneers this season and continues to greatly contribute to the team’s points.

Despite losing the 200 Medley and 200 Freestyle relays, the relay consisting of Farren, Logan, Row and Knodel were able to come back and win the 400 Freestyle relay with a time of 4:20.27.
The Orange girls scored 83 points while the Olentangy girls scored 85.
The Orange boys team swam fast and worked together to dominate the Olentangy Braves.
