The girls (5-1) and boys (6-0) swim and dive squads easily defeated Coatesville this afternoon. The girls won with a score of 116-67 and the boys won handily by a score of 81-34.
Senior Victoria Maki led the charge for East with two individual wins (50 and 100 free) and two relay wins, while fellow senior Alexa Fulton won the 200 IM (setting a new pool record) and anchored all three winning relays. The 400 free relay of Maki, Cady Kiebort, Ellie Reese, and Fulton earned a district consideration cut.

Carroll was also a member of the winning 200 medley relay with Jack Thompson, Matt DiAddezio, and George Liu and the winning 200 free relay with Liu, DiAddezio, and Connor Kiebort. Sam Sperling led a 1-2-3 sweep of the 200 free followed by teammates Lucas Respicio and Joseph Zeng.
