Five members of the Mount Si High School girls swim team have qualified for the KingCo conference meet, coming up Oct. 29. This is the team’s highest number of qualifying students yet;  last year only three qualified.

The qualifiers are Elizabeth Bourgault, Tatum Dalgleish, Murial Ross, Julia Crumb, and Emi Yoshikawa.

“Most qualified in several events and two qualified for the district meet which is a faster standard than KingCo,” swim coach Patrick Stewart said. “Emi qualified in two (district) events and Julia qualified in one.”

Stewart is hopeful that more of the girls are able to get times that qualify them for KingCo.

“I’m still seeing improvement from everyone on the team,” Stewart said.
