Marshall County will have a couple of swimmers waiting to see if their region times are fast enough to qualify for the state meet later this month in Lexington.
Delaney Miller was third in the 500-yard free in 6:00.09 and finished fourth in the 100-yard butterfly in 1:05.34.
Macey Weaver was third in the 100-yard backstroke in 1:13.70 and sixth in the 200-yard freestyle (2:20.06).
First and second place finishers automatically qualify for the KHSAA Girls’ State Swimming Championships presented by UK HealthCare on February 19 at the University of Kentucky. The next 22 fastest times statewide will also qualify.
Taryn Henry was seventh in the 100-yard backstroke (1:21.48)
The 200-yard medley relay team of Macey Weaver, Kaylee Adamson, Delaney Miller, and Taryn Henry finished fifth in 2:19.08. They also finished fifth in the 200-yard free relay in 2:02.31.
The Lady Marshals totaled 146 points to finish in sixth place. Murray won its second straight region title with 541 points.
Sunday’s region meet at the Rick Cohn Aquatic Center was delayed two days due to the winter weather that left many roads in western Kentucky ice covered. Because of the delay, the preliminary round was scratched and Sunday’s event was a timed final.
