CA’s girls’ and boys’ varsity swim teams surge to State Champion titles

February 12, 2019

Congratulations to Cary Academy’s State Champion girls’ and boys’ Varsity Swim Teams! An astounding THIRTY TWO different boys and girls made it to the Finals and scored. This marks the girls’ third consecutive State Championship title.

Congratulations to everyone (parent supporters and volunteers included) who contributed to two tremendous State Champion wins. We had our share of first place finishes and oodles of personal best swims – most of which were crazy drops in time. But, most of all, congratulations on being two great teams and One Big Family! You swam and cheered to near exhaustion. Your support for one another all season long in inspiring and led to a special evening.

Special Congrats to:

  • Charlotte Hook with TWO State Meet Record swims in the IM (1:59.84) and 100 Butterfly (:54.63) and a first place, individual State Champion finish in the 100 Butterfly
  • Nisma Said with an individual State Champion swim in the 100 Backstroke while lowering her own school record time to 56.24 seconds
  • The Girls 200 Medley Relay State Champion team of Nisma Said, Amy Chang, Charlotte Hook and Helen Chen with a school record setting time of 1:47.25.
  • Jack Todd for being an individual State Champion in the 200 Freestyle with a time of 1:47.14
  • Will Newman setting a new school record in his 2nd place swim in the 50 Free at 21.70 seconds.
  • The boys 200 Medley Relay team who placed 3rd and smashed the old school record with a time of 1:41.81; Kevin Chen, Alex Lim, Nate Alexander and Will Newman
  • The boys 200 Free Relay State Champion team of Constantin Zodl, Quinn Vaughan, Oliver Wang and Will Newman who set the tone for the 2nd half of the meet
