Plainwell Defeats Marshall on Senior Night

The Plainwell Girl's Swimming and Diving Team continued their trek towards another undefeated season with a convincing 111-71 victory over Marshall last night at the Plainwell pool. The MVP's of the night were the Seniors, as they all had a terrific evening of swimming and recognition. The seniors are: Kathleen Boylan, Karli Cornell, Helen Dolley, Brianne Crandall, Jessica Lamore, Brittany Hendrickson, Maggie Murgittroyd, Rachel Varley, and Taylor Waldecki. They were also honored with Coach Dubois sharing their individual and swim/dive team accomplishments during their high school career. They are all outstanding student athletes as presented by Coach Dubois and we all wish them much success in their future endeavors! The swim/dive parents were also honored and introduced at the meet. Rachel Varley qualified for the State Meet in the 500 Yard Freestyle and Karli Cornell came within a half second of the 100 Yard Breaststroke record.

The next meet is home against Otsego on Tuesday. A few of the girls will be attending the MISCA meet at Eastern Michigan University on Saturday. This meet brings together all 3 divisions and the competition is very strong.
