SHS swimmers in action

The Superior High School boys swimming team has been busy swimming at Grand Rapids Jan. 17 and finishing seventh at the Eau Claire North Husky Invitational Saturday.

The Spartans lost to Grand Rapids 121-65, then finished with 109 points at ECN. The host Eau Claire Memorial/North squad finished first with 397 points.

Against Grand Rapids, Aaron Christner won the 200 individual medley for Superior, and Andrew Eisenmann won the 200 freestyle and the 100 backstroke.

“On Thursday against Grand Rapids, Andrew Eisenmann broke into our top 10 all-time list in the 200 and the 100 backstroke,” said George Lehman, SHS head coach. “He moved me to No. 10 in the backstroke.”

Superior’s meet Tuesday at Duluth East was postponed due to cold weather and will now take place at 5:15 p.m. Thursday.

The Spartans will also swim at the Cambridge Invitational at 1 p.m. Saturday.
