Carbon Boys & Girls Swimming take third in Emery

By Sierra Trujillo

The swim season is well underway and the young Carbon High School boys’ and girls’ swimming teams continue to improve in hopes of qualifying for the State meet in February.
The Dinos competed in Emery on Tuesday against Emery, North Summit and Gunnison high schools, with both the boys and girls placing third at the meet behind North Summit and Emery. However, head coach Kamra Davis said that she has seen tremendous improvement week to week from her swimmers.
“We have constantly made improvement, every meet we have so many best times,” said Davis.
The Carbon boys and girls will compete at the Toole Invitational on Dec. 18 and 19 before heading to three road meets in January. The Dinos will return home for a meet against Emery on Jan. 19 beginning at 3:30 p.m.
