PREP SWIMMING: Port Angeles takes sixth at 2A state meet; Port Townsend’s Ridder fifth in 50 freestyle

FEDERAL WAY — Port Angeles took sixth place in the girls swimming and diving 2A state tournament at the King County Aquatic Center.

The Roughriders were led by the fourth-place finish of their 200-yard medley team of Ashlee Reid, Carter Juskevich, Jaine Macias and Audra Perrizo, which finished with a time of 1:58.08.

The sixth-place finish is two spots better than the eighth-place finish Port Angeles achieved last year.

Port Townsend’s Rose Ridder had the North Olympic Peninsula’s top individual showing, placing fifth in the 50-yard freestyle with a time of 25.76 seconds.

Ridder also placed 14th in the 100 freestyle, and swam with the Redskins’ 14th-place 400 freestyle medley.

Port Angeles’ Reid had the Peninsula’s top overall effort.

Along with the fourth-place finishing in the 200 medley relay, Reid also took sixth in the 100 backstroke and in the 100 freestyle. And she was part of the Riders’ 400 freestyle relay team that placed seventh.

As a team, Port Angeles racked up 141.5 points.

Individually, Riders sophomore Juskevich placed ninth in the 100 breaststroke and 10th in the 200 freestyle. Port Angeles freshman Jaine Macias finished one spot ahead of Juskevich in the 200 free.

Audra Perrizo was ninth in the 500 free, with teammate Kylee Reid taking 13th.

Kylee Reid also finished 11th in the 200 individual medley. Brooke Sires added another 11th-place finish to the Riders’ score in the 50 free.

Sires finished 13th in the 100 free and in the 200 freestyle relay, which she swam with Hailey Scott, Megan McKenna and Kylee Reid.

Olympic League-champion Port Angeles appropriately had the highest state finish in the league.

North Kitsap took 10th with 77 points, Kingston was 21st with 29 points and Port Townsend finished 22nd with 28 points.

The Redskins’ Rachel Ramsey was the only Peninsula diver to make the finals. She took 16th with 213.9 points.

Port Townsend’s other finalist was its 200 medley relay team that took 15th. The team consisted of Mazy Braden, Hana McAdam, Sarah Allen and Chloe Rogers.

The Redskins’ 200 freestyle relay team made the finals, but were disqualified in the finals round.

Sequim’s two state qualifiers, diver Emily Van Dyken and swimmer Dani Barrow were knocked out in the preliminary round.

Barrow placed 22nd in the 200 individual medley.
