Lady Rebels prepare for the first race of the night, the 200 medley relay which starts off with a 50 meter backstroke.

As the official announces the swimmers in the next race, the Rebel Swim Team finds it hard to keep quiet as the excitement builds up before the swimmers begin their heat. At the sound of the beep, the Lady Rebels plunge into URI’s pool and win the first heat to start off Tuesday’s meet.

  The SK boys and girls swim team faced Mount Hope and took home another victory. 

The girls won by 21 points, beating out Mount Hope’s girls 58 to 35.  The boys however, were neck in neck the whole meet, only to take the lead in the last race, winning by six points.

  Caitlin Mahoney, co-captain of the Lady Rebels continued to beat out the competitors despite injuring her middle finger at the Invitational Meet this past Sunday.

  The Rebel swim team’s next meet will be against Cranston East on Thursday January 14.
