Staff writer
With their season soon ending, Marion swimmers competed this past week at Shawnee Mission
Josh Smith placed 52nd in the 100 and 79th in the 50 freestyle. Zach Schlesener placed 73rd in the 100 and 77th in the 50 freestyle.
“I am really proud of the boys. Each of them swam their best times this weekend and really took in the meet,” coach MacKenzie Magee said. “It was a large meet with mainly 6A schools, and so it was a new experience for them, and they handled it well. It has been a hard go this year with weather and getting practices in.”
Marion will participate in its last meet of the season Friday at Maize.
