Tufts had a third and a fourth, and Munda did well with a third and a fourth. “We were without five boys going into the meet,” he added, “and the ones we had did a great job of filling in the gaps and contrib uting. It should benefit us later because of the experience and successful performance we received.” As far as the girls, Richardson said they benefited from the usually good per formances from Annie Bratcher, Kaitlyn Eagle invite J§L MACON REGIONAL 742-2330 • 1-877-68CRIM1 (2 7 4 6 3) Rewards of up to 5 1,000 - Remain Anonymous!

Combined, these four girls were responsible for 93 of the team’s 183 points. “I expect these girls to carry the load and score the most points for the team,” he said. “They are split seconds away from qualify ing for the state meet in each of the three relay events. They missed the 200-medley relay time by 1.33 seconds, the 200 free relay time by .29 seconds. “The positives on the girls side in the Bainbridge event,” he added, “was that we got great performances from sophomores Kimber Bergo and Kristen Robinson. Bergo had a second in the IM-and a third in the 100 fly. Robinson came in and got a fifth in the 50 free and a second in the 200 free.
