The Winhawks swim Tuesday Night against Owatonna

After finishing side-by-side in eth Section True Team, Winona & Owatonna should not have much for surprises for each other.


Owatonna will really test the Winhawks in the early events.

The 200FR will require a big effort from the Winhawks and will be a big determinant on the outcome.

The 50 FR will showcase the Owatonna Sprinter Erica O’Neill.

Too bad diving is over at the Middle School. The Winhawk divers will have a great test diving against Owatonna’s Sam Kniefel. FR Crystal, and JR’s Lianna Hawthorne and Erin Buswell will need to execute but should outscore the Huskies.

The 100FL will require JR Sam Quandahl and 8th gr Reese Galewski to be at their best to negate the team of Schneider and Johnson from Owatonna. This will be a good race and could tip the scales in either direction.

The 100FR will be its usual nail biter, look for a close 2-4th place race.

Owatonna has a sub 6 minute swimmer in Lindsey Price so Coach Burt will have to pick a Winhawk to try and counter that effort and score some additional mid-place points.

The 200FR Relay will be fast and neck and neck the entire way.

Winona can score some big points in the 100BK and they may need them at that point.

The 100BR will be a good contest for FR Alexandra Zuelke, if JR Taylor Johnson and a younger Winhawk can deliver the Winhawks could score big.

The 400Fr Relay should go to Winona, the only question is if the Winona “B” Relay can edge out a second place.
