Fairport sweep with Marlys Fuqua, Moore, and Carly Callan capturing the top
three spots.
Erin Legg turned in the top time in the 50 free with a strong performance of
25.95. Legg was followed by Yorio in second while Emily Vaughn finished in
the scoring in fourth.
Fairport has a deep diving squad this year and showed its strength with a
1-2-3 sweep. Becky Bersani took the top spot with 155.65 points with
Gretchen Schroeder and Becky Kraft finishing in second and third. Following
the diving break the Fairport swimmers posted the top three times in the 100
fly with Ostrom finishing in 1:07.31 followed by Kroll and Burris.
Legg swam to an excellent time of 55.97 in the 100 free with Roberts and
Vaughan finishing in second and fourth. McGraw then finished first in the
500 free with a solid performance of 5:30.04. The 200 free relay provided
the Fairport girls an opportunity to demonstrate their team depth with a 1-2
finish. The team of Moore, Hogg, Legg, and Ostrom posted the top time with
Burris, Vaughan, Suzanne Flynn and Marlys Fuqua in close pursuit. Roberts,
Callan, and Yorio then swam well in the 100 back finishing in first, second,
and fourth.
In the 100 breast, McGraw, Kenny, and Kroll led yet another 1-2-3 sweep for
the Sharks. The Fairport team then finished off the meet just as it started
with a 1-2 sweep in the 400 free relay. The team of Ostrom, Marlys Fuqua,
Lakehal-Ayat, and Callan took the top spot while Moore, Vaughn, Burris, and
