Southeast, Yukon swimmers converge on Juneau for ABC Invitational meet
Members of the Juneau-Douglas High School boys swimming team, fresh from claiming a share of the state title earlier this month, led local swimmers at the ABC Invitational swim meet held last weekend at the Augustus Brown Pool.
Juneau's Glacier Swim Club hosted the meet, which drew competitors from Juneau, Haines, Petersburg, Wrangell, Sitka, Ketchikan, Craig and Whitehorse for three days of swimming.
The Crimson Bear swimmers with the most success at the meet were the Hughes brothers, Aaron and Paul, who each won five individual events. Both were also part of winning relay teams.
Kirk Fishel, state champion in the 100-yard backstroke, won that event and two other individual races at the meet. Fishel was also on two winning relays.
Abe Levy won three individual events, and Jonathon Wendel won two races. Other members of the state champion boys' squad taking part in the meet were Tyler Hennon, Mike Kasten and Josh Stone.
Other Glacier Swim Club swimmers who won multiple individual races were Kristin Jones, Julia Dicostanzo, Alexander Barto, Amanda Jones, Auri Clark and Helen Riemer.
Cascade Galasso won two events for the Haines Dolphins Swim Club.
