Swimming makes a splash at GHS
Competitive swimming is now offered at GHS. Kerra Clement, Alex Smith and
Madeline Rowe swam in the district swim meet at Austin College on January 29.
Madeline has been swimming year round for the past 4 - 5 yrs. She travels to
Frisco every week for practices.
Kerra swam for the Frisco FASST team for 6 years, but has not swam the past 3
years because there was no swim team until now. She had 6 just 6 workouts
before the first meet. Alex swam at Ponca City High School in Oklahoma as a
freshman, but also hasn't swam the past 3 years for lack of a team.
Kerra and Madeline swam recently in the Mc Kinney Invitational and finished
12th out of 18 teams with just two girls. Madeline got 3rd in the 100 backstroke
with a time of 1.19 and 4th in the 500 freestyle with a time of 6.35. Kerra got 7th in
the backstroke with a time of 1.24 and 20th in the 100 freestyle with a time of 1.18.
There are only AAAA and AAAAA districts in swim, so Gunter will be competing in
District 9 of Region II in AAAA. Their district consist of teams from Sherman, Denison,
Paris HS, Paris North Lamar, Prosper, Bonham and Gunter.
Congratulations!
The Lady Tigers JV basketball
team not only won the district
tournament recently, but are
undefeated this season.
