Competing in four meets in November and December garnered strong results for the Powell Piranha Swim Club, as 11 athletes qualified for the WYSI Winter Championships in Gillette at the end of February.
Powell competed in events around the state, including the 42nd Annual Spook Splash on Nov. 1-2, the Cody Tuesday Night Turkey Shoot on Nov. 18, the Worland Turkey Thrash on Nov. 22-23 and the Riverton Reindeer Dash on Dec. 6-7.
Qualifiers for the state meet included Rachel Rose as the youngest competitor at 8 years old; 10-year-olds Sarah Kruger and Ben Williams; 11-year-olds Aubree Morton and Mary Rose; 13-year-old Jake Williams; 14-year-olds Kooper Arends, Lynea Christensen and Carter Kruger along with 15-year-olds Tyler Kruger and Sam Williams.
Those competitors qualified in more than 30 events combined.
The Piranhas will now stay at home to start the new year, welcoming in teams for the annual Winter Fiesta on Saturday and Sunday at the Powell Aquatic Center.
That will not be the only opportunity to see the Piranhas in action at home this year, as they will host the Big Horn Basin District Meet on Feb. 14-15.
