Shaving times in winter

Swimmers improve on short courses


SV5B swimmers have consistently shaved their times and improved performances as the winter short course season has taken off recently.

Twenty local kids stacked up well competing against 400 Northwest athletes at the annual Thanksgiving Invitational meet Nov. 17-19 in Boise's West Family YMCA pool.

Racheal McGinnis, 15, led her teammates with three gold medals coming in the 50, 100 and 200 free. Sarah Brown, 13, brought home two golds in the 200 fly and 400 IM.

In the relays, SV5B captured two second places—the 13-and-over girls' 200 medley group of McGinnis, Rian Ervin, Megan Hayes and Taylor Coiner, and the girls' 13-and-over free relay squad of McGinnis, Hannah McNees, Hayes and Coiner.

The relay team of Michael Coiner, Esther Williams, Sarah Brown and Tori Emerick ended up fifth in the 200 medley and fourth in 200 free.
