“Conference didn’t go exactly how I wanted it to go when swimming in my event. However, it was a good check in to see where I was and what adjustments I needed to make to prepare for state. The team did really well at conference, so we have high hopes for the state competition.” Matt Geraghty. The state competition is May 18 and 19. Congratulations to the Boys Swimming and Diving team getting first place at conference.
