Barracudas Place Second at Conrad Meet

The 2020 swim season has proven to be an interesting one, with most meets canceled throughout the federation. Conrad received approval to host a 7-team meet this last Saturday, in which the Barracudas swam in the closest thing to a traditional swim meet they've competed in this summer. Missing were the touch-pads, relay events, a timer for each lane and approximately 300 swimmers that would normally attend a Conrad-hosted meet. Teams that host are being required to host smaller, more local meets in order to comply with COVID regulations. Despite the sparsely populated bleachers and seemingly empty team tent areas, the Barracudas took 25 swimmers to the meet and posted some strong performances, scoring a total of 602 points to place second overall. The hometown Conrad swim team placed first and Shelby placed third.

Earning high point honors and scoring 42 points for the Barracudas were Henry Merrill, Caydence Pleninger and Cam Schwarzbach. Astrid Ketchum also topped her division, scoring 40 points. Mackenzie Werk placed second in her division and scored 40 points, Darrell Sunchild added 38 points and Lane Demontiney and Dillin Geyer also tossed in 36 points each.
