ADA __The Ada Gators summer swim team split a dual meet with visiting county rival Kenton Area Swim Team in their last home meet of the regular season on Thursday evening, June 25 at the Ada Municipal Pool. 

The Gator boys defeated the Stingray males 156-140 in their dual meet. The Ada boys improved to 4-3 this summer with the close win.

The KAST girls defeated the Ada females, 245-152. The Stingrays won the combined boys/girls meet, 385-308.

“We had a lot of swimmers in the water,” said Ada head coach Dave Lusk. “Many are young swimmers. That bodes well for the future. Overall, it was a great team effort.”

Ada fell to 0-7 in dual meet results this summer after the defeat.

Ada’s Derek Dennis (boys 13-14), Nilsson VanAtta (boys 11-12) and Parker Wilson each won three races.

Gator Myles Donley (boys 11-12) also captured first in three individual events. 

Gators Allison Perry (girls 9-10), Koby Prater (boys 8 and under), Lydia Demascio (girls 15+) and Vada Rolston (girls 8 and under) touched first in two races apiece.

Adaites Alyssa Nau (girls 15+), Pepin VanAtta (girls 8 and under) and Jacob Szippl (boys 15+) each won one race.

The Ada boys won three relay events, while the Gator girls took first in two relays. 

Ada swims at Van Wert on Monday, June 29 in the regular season dual finale. The Gators do not face WOAL foe Findlay in a dual meet this season.

”Next week, we begin our preparation for championships,” said Lusk.

The league championship meet is July 10-11 at the Kenton pool.
