Marvin Ridge won with 626 points at the final, with runner-up\u00a0<strong>Chapel Hill<\/strong> not too far behind in 566.5 points, and second runner-up\u00a0<strong>Northern Guildford<\/strong> finishing in 290.5.<\/p>\n<p>The women went off first. Marvin Ridge and Chapel Hill&#8217;s women led the way in the first event, the 200 yard medley relay. Marvin Ridge&#8217;s team, lead by\u00a0<strong>Caroline Hauder<\/strong>,<strong> Alex Bonfilio<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Katie Rivers<\/strong>, and\u00a0<strong>Ashley Baum<\/strong> touched in a blazing 1:47.11, two seconds ahead of Chapel Hill&#8217;s squad consisting of\u00a0<strong>Claire DeSelm<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Sarah Taekman<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Uma Knaven<\/strong>, and\u00a0<strong>Paige Jones<\/strong>, who dropped two seconds off their prelims time to take silver in 1:49.29. On the men&#8217;s side, Northern Guildford&#8217;s squad with <strong>Jordan Reed<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Jeremy Lalumondier<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Bryan Hill<\/strong>, and\u00a0<strong>Jonathan Wachendorfer\u00a0<\/strong>took gold (1:37.80), dropping two seconds off their prelim time to finish ahead of Corinth-Holders\u00a0<strong>Connor\u00a0<\/strong><b>Blandford<\/b>,\u00a0<strong>Chris Carter<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Christian Lower<\/strong>, and\u00a0<strong>Jacob Stokes<\/strong> (1:39.24).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Anna Durak<\/strong> of Hickory raced to a fast finish in the women&#8217;s 200 yard freestyle in 1:50.14, followed by St Stephen&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Maria Turcanu<\/strong> in 1:52.49. Durak&#8217;s definitely a swimmer to watch out for, as she went on to capture a second state title in the 100 yard freestyle later on. Marvin Ridge&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Jeffrey Murray<\/strong> also grabbed a state title for his team in 1:42.23, knocking out close finisher\u00a0<strong>Sam Jones<\/strong> of Concord (1:43.90).<\/p>\n<p>Marvin Ridge&#8217;s ladies swept the next event, the women&#8217;s 200 yard individual medley, where Hauder (1:58.85) and Bonfilio (2:05.53) went 1-2. On the men&#8217;s side, we saw Corinth-Holders Blandford grab his first individual state title of the night in 1:50.72, with St Stephen&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Jacob Queen<\/strong> fighting for silver (1:52.85).<\/p>\n<p>Up next was the 50 yard freestyle, where fast, tight finishes set the tone for the entire race. Weddington&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Katie Corbie<\/strong> (24.27) touched first, with Nash Central&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Jennifer Jackson<\/strong> tight on her tail in 24.48, and Cox Mill&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Cathleen Rogers\u00a0<\/strong>touching for third in 24.81. The men&#8217;s 50 yard freestyle had similar excitement, with the top two finishers, Concord&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Robbie Epler\u00a0<\/strong>(21.48) and Western Alamance&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Noah Henderson<\/strong> (21.52) being 0.04 a part at the finish. Henderson grabbed second, too, just out touching third place finisher, Tuscola&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Jack MacDonald<\/strong> (21.53) by 0.01, another fast finish that really brought excitement to onlookers.<\/p>\n<p>Chapel Hill&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Claire DeSelm<\/strong> dominated the women&#8217;s 100 yard butterfly, touching in 56.32, touching ahead of Marvin Ridge&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Ellie VanNote<\/strong> (57.27). Western Alamance&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Noah Henderson\u00a0<\/strong>(49.70) went on to claim the men&#8217;s title, followed by runner-up\u00a0<strong>Peter Dwyer<\/strong> (50.41). Henderson, only a freshman still, has lots of room for growth these next three years. Watch out for him, he&#8217;s projected to become seriously good.<\/p>\n<p>Durak claimed her second title of the night in the 100 yard freestyle (51.76), followed by Cox Mill&#8217;s Rogers (53.93) and Chapel Hill&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Marissa Tocci<\/strong> (54.26). For the men, Tuscola&#8217;s MacDonald took his first state title of the night in a blistering 46.28, finishing more than a second ahead of South Iredell&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Colson Zucker<\/strong> (47.41).<\/p>\n<p>At this point, Marvin Ridge and Chapel Hill were nearly tied up for first, with Marvin Ridge at a slight lead, 367 to 297.5. So finishes going into the 500 yard freestyle and beyond, especially the relays, would be of great significance towards the overall team state title. Hickory&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Emmaline Peterson<\/strong> grabbed the 500 yard freestyle women&#8217;s title in (4:52.80) ahead of second place\u00a0<strong>Sophia Cherkez<\/strong> (4:58.73). For the men, St Stephens&#8217;s Queen took his first title of the night in 4:36.92, ahead of Weddington&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Curtis Wiltsey<\/strong> (4:38.10), and both fought valiantly for the finish.<\/p>\n<p>The second relay of the night, the 200 yard freestyle relay, was key for the top two teams, Marvin Ridge and Chapel Hill. Marvin Ridge&#8217;s women grabbed their second state relay title of the night in 1:36.95. The team, consisting of\u00a0<strong>Ellie VanNote<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Katie Marshall<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Samantha Bitter<\/strong>, and Baum fought for a tight finish ahead of Northern Guildford&#8217;s women (1:40.13). Chapel Hill&#8217;s men were victorious in their 200 yard freestyle relay, the team composed of\u00a0<strong>Christopher Eron<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Ang Li<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Jordan Ren<\/strong>, and\u00a0<strong>Eli Rose<\/strong> (1:28.42) finishing ahead of the Marvin Ridge men (1:28.61), who grabbed silver.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Madison Holland<\/strong> of Cox Mill took her first title of the night in the women&#8217;s 100 yard backstroke (56.61), knocking out Weddington&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Maddy\u00a0<\/strong><b>Flickinger<\/b> (57.28). On the men&#8217;s side, North Guildford&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Jordan Reed<\/strong> grabbed his first title in 51.63 in a tight finish against Fike&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>John Holsten\u00a0<\/strong>(51.85).<\/p>\n<p>Marvin Ridge&#8217;s women once again went 1-2 in an individual event in the women&#8217;s 100 yard breaststroke, where Hauder claimed her first individual title of the night in 1:02.15, followed by teammate\u00a0<strong>Mary Agnes Rothenberg<\/strong> (1:06.54). For the men, Corinth-Holders&#8217;s Blandford made waves once again, grabbing the title in 57.66, followed by Robinson&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Travis Rogers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Marvin Ridge&#8217;s took 3\/3 relays with yet another incredible finish in the final event, the 400 yard freestyle relay, dropping over six seconds from prelims to finals to take the title in 3:33.34, a blistering four seconds ahead of Hickory&#8217;s 3:37.24. Marvin Ridge&#8217;s team, made up of Bonfilio, Marshall, VanNote, and Hauder, is certainly a squad for the ages. Marvin Ridge&#8217;s men, <strong>Jeffery Murray<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Nate Utesch<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Adam Fischer, <\/strong>and\u00a0<strong>Peter Dwyer<\/strong>, also took the men&#8217;s 400 yard freestyle relay state title by storm in 3:12.43, also five seconds ahead of competition runner-up Chapel Hill.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s a wrap for today&#8217;s events, but there&#8217;s still more to come as the women&#8217;s and men&#8217;s 1A\/2A NCHSAA high school state swimming championships continue to go off this weekend at Triangle Aquatics Center in Cary, North Carolina.
