There was a plethora of top-tier performances at the 1A Region meets, several of them coming at the Region 1 meet from the Bolles School team.
The Bolles girls and boys both won the Region 1 meet in decisive fashion. On the girls’ side, Manita Sathianchokwisan was a top performer, winning the 50 free in a new Bolles record of 22.63 while also winning the 100 free in 50.31—both ‘A’ cuts. Megan McGrath was also strong for the Bolles girls, putting up the fastest time of the entire Class 1A in the 200 free (1:49.40) and winning the Region 1 100 fly (55.50).
The Bolles boys were led by Andres Dupont Cabrera, who sizzled to the top times of the class in the 100 free (44.43) and 200 free (1:37.73), both ‘A’ cuts, plus the top time in the 50 free (20.32) from a relay lead-off leg.
Miguel Rojas Newman (100 fly–48.79), Kayden Lancaster (500 free–4:33.44) and William Heck (100 breast–55.26) also posted the top times of the class at the Region 1 meet for Bolles.
Among the top performers at Region 2 was Berkeley Prep senior Tyler Roberton, who put up the top 50 free time for boys individually in the class at 20.68. The Berkeley Prep boys ended up finishing just 11 points shy of Out-of-Door Academy for first place.
