Plainwell vs Mattawan and Wayland
On Sept 11th Plainwell Swim & Dive hosted Wayland and Mattawan for its first double dual meet of the season. For those unfamiliar the meet is scored as if two separate meets were run at the same time. Meet one is scored PHS vs Mattawan and Meet two is scored PHS vs Wayland. You do not get a first, second and third place for a three team meet rather a win loss head to head with each team. This can add a whole new dimension to the strategy involved. To further complicate issues all has not been forgot when Plainwell traveled to division 2 Mattawan last year for one of the most exciting meets of the season. The meet was not decided until the last girl touched the wall in the last event of the night. In the end our Trojans narrowly edged out Mattawan by two points for the victory. As you can imagine this year tensions would be high knowing that Mattawan would be looking for payback. This year they would not get their revenge. Our swimmers and divers were ready, performed well and took home the W in both meets.  Great effort by all!
