CCHS Freshman Swimmer going to Sectionals!

Catholic Central Freshman Isabelle (Izzy) Craig has had an outstanding year as a member of the Burlington Co-op Swim Team, which consists of swimmers from Burlington, Catholic Central, Union Grove and Waterford high schools.  Her regular swim season is coming to an end.  They participated in their JV Conference Meet on Tuesday October 25th and the Co-Op team came in First Place!  Izzy brought home 3 First Place Medals and a 2nd Place Medal in the 100 Meter Backstroke, due to being out-touched by 1 one-hundredth of a second by her own teammate.

On Friday, October 28th, the Co-Op team participated in a JV invite with 11 other schools/teams.  Izzy, along with 3 of her teammates, took 3rd overall in the Medley Relay and the 200 Yard Freestyle Relay.  Izzy took 3rd among Freshmen competing in the Individual Medley and was 1st overall out of all of the Freshmen in the 100 Yard Backstroke (2nd overall).

On Saturday, October 29th the Co-Op team had their Varsity Conference Meet.  They took 2nd place.  Izzy participated in both the Medley Relay and the 100 Yard Backstroke.  She had a personal best time in the 100 Yard Backstroke and managed to take off 9 seconds overall on her backstroke this season, surpassing the goal set for her by her coach.

Izzy will be swimming the 100 Backstroke at Sectionals this Saturday, November 5th.  She is one of only 4 of the 9 freshman chosen to participate in Sectionals.

Congratulations on an outstanding season Izzy!  Best of luck in the Sectionals!
