LHS swims to second

Behind a pair of first-place finishes from sophomore Zach Andregg and a strong showing from its 400 freestyle relay team in the final event, the Lawrence High boys swimming team finished second at its home invitational on Tuesday.

Andregg was victorious in the 200 IM (2:07.56) and the 500 freestyle (5:03.49) and also swam the anchor leg of the 400 freestyle relay that finished second, which helped push the Lions past Shawnee Mission South in the final team standings.

Individually, senior Roy Wedge finished third in the 200 freestyle, freshman Nathan Evers took third in the 200 IM and second in the 100 butterfly, freshman Adam Edmonds took third in the 100 backstroke and senior Calvin Morgan (second) and junior Eric Long (third) placed near the top of the 100 breaststroke.
