Plainwell competes in Tri meet with Otsego and Alma
Plainwell went on the road to take on conference contenders Otsego and Alma.  The Lady Trojans were prepared to bring their best having just come off important wins earlier in the week.
Diving kicked off the meet in the morning with a strong showing by all 3 Plainwell divers; Kim Jones, Emily Zimmer and Rachel Moore. The girls got the team off to a great start and a solid points lead by placing in the top 3 spots overall.  Also noteworthy was the performance of our exchange student Helen Breuer. Coach had her swim one of her favorite events this week and she repaid him by putting up a personal best time in the 100 breaststroke (1:27.03). Another high point of the night had to be the state qualifying time for the 400 free relay team of Aaryn Jewell, Laura Jones, Jessica Nyberg and Emma Seiler with a time of 3:56.60.  The list of Plainwell STATE swimmers and events qualified is growing fast. Great Job Ladies!!!
