More than 200 athletes from around Wyoming and Montana flocked to Powell on Jan. 14-15 to take part in the Winter Fiesta — where the Piranhas picked up 28 qualifying times for the youth state swim meet in February.

Overall the Piranhas had three first place finishes — Baylee Brence in the 1,000 free (14:52.11), Patricia Christensen in the 100 back (1:06.62) and Aubree Kraft in the 200 free (2:51.95).
