The Fairport High School swim teams visited Honeoye
Falls-Lima high school for the first time ever last week.
The Fairport varsity improved its record to 3-0 with a win
by the score of 99-79.
The varsity swimmers made their mark by setting four pool
records. Freshman Jon Roberts set pool records in his two
individual events, the 200 individual medley and the 100
breast.
Junior Jim Wood set a third pool record in the 100
backstroke. The 400 freestyle relay team of Tim Stockton,
Jim Wood, Matt McGraw, and Pete Kaemmerlen established a
fourth pool record in a close race in which the Honeoye
Falls-Lima relay team also bettered the previous standard.
The meet opened with Fairport going 1-2 in the 200 medley
relay. P Kaemmerlen, Doug Potvin, Kurt Schwarz, and Keith
Schanck finished first in 1:49.25, narrowly beating Jeff
Kaemmerlen, Jim Wood, Roberts, and Vijay Parthasarathy who
finished in 1:49.35. Cyrus Salehi, Tyler Obenauf, Jeff
Melvin, and Corey Stark swam the race in 1:57.48.
Fairport was strong again in the 200 free with Jeff Wood
winning in 1:48.46, Stockton second in 1:54.38, and Matt
McGraw third in 1:55.52. Robert's pool record time in the
200 individual medley was 2:01.27, followed by P Kaemmerlen
in 2:11.00 and Parthasarathy in 2:24.87. The three Fairport
swimmers in the 50 free also made it a close race, Salehi
swimming in 24.20, Schwarz in 24.61, and Obenauf in 25.11.
Senior Pete Crane won the diving for the Red Raiders. His
score of 267.95 missed the pool record by less than a point.
Junior Ryan McLaughlin was second in 223.45.
Schwarz placed second in the 100 butterfly with a time of
1:00.26, followed by Corey Stark in 1:07.44. Next was the
100 free in which Salehi was third in 53.40, Obenauf fourth
in 55.77, and Parthsarathy close behind in 55.91.
The 500 free was close all the way with J Kaemmerlen
narrowly touched out by his opponent in 5:24.69, Potvin
third in 5:30.13, and Melvin fourth in 5:39.61. The 200 free
relay team of Jeff Wood, Parthasarathy, J Kaemmerlen, and
Schwarz placed second, less than a second ahead of Stockton,
Stark, Potvin, and Obenauf who finished third.
Fairport then showed its strength in the backstroke with Jim
Wood's pool record time of 55.45, McGraw second in 57.65,
and P Kaemmerlen third in 58.84. Next was Roberts' 100
breast pool record victory in 1:00.40, followed by Schanck
in 1:18.97 and Melvin in 1:21.92.
The final event of the meet and fourth Red Raider pool
record was the 400 free relay. Stockton, Jim Wood, McGraw,
and P Kaemmerlen won a race that was very close all the way
in 3:26.95. Parthasarathy, J Kaemmerlen, Potvin, and Stark
finished in 3:49.20.
