Glasgow to Host Meet This Weekend
The Glasgow Thunder nearly brought home some hardware from the Plentywood swim meet this past weekend, June 25 and 26, placing fourth overall behind the Scobey Stingrays, the hometown Plentywood Dolphins, and the roster-heavy Sidney Tiger Sharks.
Once again, the weather was a major problem with several lightning delays bringing the meet to a halt on Saturday. A typical swim-meet day ends mid-afternoon, but on Saturday the event was still going strong into the evening and didn't conclude until 6:30 p.m.
Sunday, all the weary swimmers and fans returned for another day of races, and were treated to a marginally better day of weather. A day without delays, anyway.
Each age group for the Thunder had good results, with several swimmers dropping time from last week or gaining a place or two in their finals. In the youngest age group (8 and under) the Thunder had swimmers qualify for finals in their individual events for the first time this season. Competition in the senior girls' division was fierce, with an unusual five-way tie for high point in the 15-19 year-old category. The Thunder's Katie Kaiser shared the accomplishment with Siri Pederson, Lewistown, Chye Handran, Scobey, Torey Dahl, Sidney, and Aubrey Kessel, Sidney.
This weekend provides an opportunity to see your hometown swimmers in action, as Glasgow hosts their invitational meet. Glasgow's meet is popular in the Eastern Federation and more than 200 swimmers are expected to compete.
