The team finished their dual meet season with a 4-2 record heading into the New England Championships held at Exeter this year. They avenged their earlier loss against Andover on their way to a first place finish at the championship meet.

Our two strongest events that eventually pulled us ahead of Andover for the championship were the 100 Backstroke and the 100 Breastroke. In the 100 Back, Oliva Jackson '13 placed 2nd, Nicole Anderson placed 4th and Renee Wang placed 6th in New England. In the Breastroke, Emma Nuzzo '12 was 3rd, Jennifer Liu was 5th and Hope Logan '14 placed 6th.

To top off the evening, our 400 Free Relay of Catharine Shipps '13, Nicole Anderson, Olivia Jackson and Emma Nuzzo placed 2nd ahead of Andover's Relay with a time that was just tenths of a second off of our varsity record.

The team and coaches would like to thank senior managers Clare Pak and Angus Schaefer for all their help throughout this season.
