Wahconah Boys' Depth Too Much for Mount Anthony
BENNINGTON, Vt. – Kalen Spratt won the 100-yard backstroke Wednesday to lead the Wahconah boys swim team to an 81-79 win over Mount Anthony Union at the Bennington Recreation Center.
Spratt’s win with two races left in the event gave Wahconah a 66-65 lead.
In the next trace, Artois Sancho, Brayden Ryan and Henry McCoy placed second, third and fourth, respectively, to give Wahconah a 75-71 lead. And Wahconah’s two 4-by-100 freestyle relay quartets provided the rest of the points the team needed to secure the win.
The Wahconah boys won with just two first-place finishes, overwhelming Mount Anthony with their depth. In addition to Spratt’s win in the backstroke, Artois Sancho took first in the 50 free.
In the girls meet, Wahconah again had strength in numbers, but the Patriots picked up enough first-place finishes to secure an 85-81 win.
In fact, the Mount Anthony girls won all but one race. That one went to Emily Capogna in the 100-yard breaststroke.
