Comments From Spencer Coach Jesse Kuehler:
Couldn’t be prouder of the boys. They swam their hearts out today. Everyone cut time and swam their fastest races of the year today. They really left everything in the pool, and I could not be prouder of them. We had such a fast and competitive district meet, so we knew we had to be really solid throughout the day to give ourselves a chance at the state meet, and the boys truly did just that. Huge congratulations to Oliver Miller, Ray Kaiser, and Owen Van Otterloo who qualified for the state meet in Iowa City! Special shoutout to our 2 seniors – Caleb Duhn and Landon Tate on their final swim meet. Phenomenal captains and great swimmers, but even better young men. Thank you for everything you have done for the team this season, and over the past 4 seasons! Big things coming for these 2 seniors.
