Jersey Shore Sends Swimmer to PIAA States on Day 1

After one day of swimming, Jersey Shore girls are in fifth place with 115 points (Central Columbia is in first with 252) and the boys are in 7th (Bloomsburg in the lead with 194).

Shore's Emma Butzler qualified for PIAA States with a win in the 100 yard butterfly at 59.10.  Teammate Gabbie Moore dropped 2.29 seconds to capture 5th.

Butzler also broke Shore's 200 yard freestyle with a second place finish at 1:56.17.  Bloomsburg's freshman Hanna Everhart took the event with a 1:53.00 and served notice to the rest of the swimming community that she is eyeing a very high finish at States.

Jersey Shore's biggest time drop of the day came from Kendra White as she dropped over 7 seconds in the 200 IM to finish 7th with a time of 2;21.78
