KENTON __The visiting Ada Gators summer swim team competed well vs. Kenton and Wapakoneta in a West Ohio Aquatic League triangular meet on Monday evening, June 15.

The Ada boys team swept to victory in both competitions to run their win streak to three consecutive meets. 

The Gator boys beat Wapakoneta and county rival Kenton Area Swim Team, overcoming bigger rosters, to improve to 3-1 this summer. 

The Ada males defeated the Wave boys 269-227, and topped the hosting Stingray team 293-162.

The Wapak Wave girls beat Ada, 343-142. The KAST Stingray girls defeated the Gators, 384-147.

Wapakoneta edged KAST in their girls dual 298-275, and won both combined meets. 

Overall, the Wave boys and girls downed Ada 570-411, and they knocked off the Stingrays 537-481.

On the strength of a decisive girls win, the host Stingrays also beat the Gators in their close combined meet, 546-440.

The Gator girls fell to 0-4 this season after the losses.

“Great job from our boys to defeat two very strong teams,” said Gator head coach Dave Lusk. “The girls swam very well, but due to injury and illness, we only had two high school girls competing.

“As usual, the (opponent’s) greater number of swimmers overwhelmed us,” he noted.

The Harriger boys accounted for 11 individual race wins. Luke Harriger touched first in five events in the boys 9-10 class. Lincoln Harriger (15+) and Landry Harriger (13-14) won three races apiece.

Ada's Derek Dennis (boys 13-14) touched first in two races, and swam a leg for a winning relay quartet.

Lydia Demascio won three individual events in the girls 15-18 age group to lead the Ada girls.

Gator Koby Prater (boys 7-8) captured first place in two races. Ada’s Jacob Szippl won one individual race and swam in two victorious relays.

Ada is back in the pool on Thursday evening when they host WOAL foe Westside.
