The Jefferson Swim Team won the Iowa West Swim Conference meet on Saturday in Sac City. Head Coach Maddie Schroeder reports her squad edged Guthrie Center by a mere 2-1/2 points, 1,297-1,294.5, with Perry third at 1,253. Perry won the regular season title with Jefferson second and Guthrie Center third.

Schroeder said team scores were not announced on-site and she didn’t find out her team had won until she received a text message after returning to Jefferson. She said her team was ahead throughout the day, but Guthrie Center’s strength in the butterfly put them in strong contention. She added it was very hot, but she was happy about the way the team performed.
