The Minnehaha-Holy Angels co-op swim team participated in section preliminaries yesterday at St. Kates. The three relay team participants all advanced to the section final, being held tomorrow. Swimmers on the relay teams were the varsity team, which included junior Olivia Lutter, sophomores Caelin Hoben and Grace Percich and eighth grader Maddie Shea.

“They all participated very well, and it was super fun to see a lot of the team get the personal best that they had been aiming for all season,” Lutter said, who is also the captain of the swim team.

To see the real action of one of the swimmers, Hoben is featured in the video of the St. Kate’s meet attached below.
