Jersey Shore Swimmers - Cross Training and Excelling



The official start of the high school swimming season is right around the corner just as the weather starts to turn.  Before the blog postings start with swimming results, achievements, and other happenings, the swimmers should be recognized for their other athletic accomplishments.

While running is Cody Allen’s first love, he uses swimming to work some different muscles and train for the spring season.  Allen became the first Jersey Shore cross country runner to earn a state medal at the PIAA Cross Country Championships after placing 18th in the boys Class AA race.  You can read the whole article here.

Erin Engle, a summer swimmer for the Jersey Shore Bullfrogs, was part of a doubles tennis team (with Sara Danley) that won the District II/IV AAA Doubles championship over Williamsport 6-1, 6-4, 6-1 to advance to Hershey for the AAA doubles state championships.  You can see a picture of the winning duo here.

Jersey Shore boys soccer hasn’t had a winning season in how long?  There aren’t enough fingers on two hands to figure that one out.  This year was different as the boys went 11-7-1 and made the playoffs for the first time in a decade.  Jersey Shore swimmers and soccer starters, Zach Lehman and Michael Panczyszyn, were one of the reasons the boys did so well.  You can get a feel for their success by the Lock Haven Express article here.
