She is now ranked the number 1 seed as a freshman going into the D1 State Meet. Jessica Conkey added another strong performance, finishing 5th with a new personal best of 1:16.99. The Lakers wrapped up the meet with a 3rd-place finish in the 400 Freestyle Relay. Swimmers included Keira Pratt, Adriana Nunez, Jessica Conkey and Alyssa Mientkiewicz finishing with a time of 1:52.96. Overall, the girls did an amazing job, and all of their hard work throughout the season paid off. What makes this 3rd-place finish even more impressive is that West Bloomfield accomplished it with a roster of just 18 swimmers. Every swimmer contributed, and this team showed just how important every point and every individual effort can be. Next up, diver Lucy Harmala will compete at Regionals this Thursday, followed by the MHSAA Division 1 State Meet, held November 20–21 at Jenison High School. Congratulations to all the girls on an outstanding league championship performance! Keep up the great work, and best of luck to Lucy at Regionals and everyone competing at States. Go Lakers! ~Coach Ronson Personal Bests 1. Alyssa Mientkiewicz 200 Free 2:17.89 2. Ash Thaler 200 Free 2:22.02 3. Zoe Stander 100 Free 54.54 4. Mariam Alokk 50 Free 41.69 5.
