Columbia Falls summer swim team wins title at Choteau
The Columbia Falls Swim team took the first-place title at Choteau last weekend. The Wildcats brought 42 swimmers to the meet and won with a score of 1,005 points (361 points above second place).
“We had so many very tough swims and great races this weekend. The sportsmanship of our team was obvious to both me and the coaches of other teams and for that I’m really proud.
“Everyone has collectively raised the intensity and performance level of this team and we are now really starting to feel the impact of executing the process.
“We are showing up for our races, closing races and really learning how to be good, humble competitors. This is why in three weeks we have crowned 12 different athletes with 17 high point awards. I am excited to see how this team’s willingness to improve will progress through the season,” coach Kyle Babcock said.
