Indian River is Rolling at NJCAA Champs

FORT PIERCE, Fla. March 3. INDIAN River Community College got off to a strong start Wednesday during the first night of competition at the National Junior College Athletic Association Championships, hosted by Indian River.

The Indian River women won the 400 medley relay (4:02.50) and added a triumph in the 800 freestyle relay, winning that event by an eye-popping 46 seconds. Indian River hit the wall in the free relay in 7:41.46. Missy Helmers and Chelsea Lewis were members of both relays.

For the men, Indian River posted a convincing decision in the 800 free relay, as the quartet of Micah Belew, Jeremy Clark, Juan Ortiz and Leo Andara registered a swim of 6:47.96.

The negative of the day for Indian River was its disqualification in the 400 medley relay. Darton won the event in 3:39.45 behind the foursome of Anderson Miller, Eric Roberts, Landon Burnette and Brian Zorn.
