Three Sequim swimmers earned district-qualifying times in five events as the Wolves opened the Olympic League schedule with a close 77-73 girls swim and dive win over the Trojans in Silverdale on Sept. 18.

“It was a great start to the season with some personal-best and district-qualifying times,” Sequim coach Sarah Thorson said.

Sequim took first place in six of the 11 events against Olympic. Annie Ellefson earned district times in the 100-yard breaststroke in one minute, 20.94 seconds and the 200-yard freestyle in 2:22.65. Ava Shinkle qualified for the district meet in the 100 individual medley (2:29.38) and the 100 freestyle (1:01.38).

Melia Nelson also made the district meet with a time of 6:29.2 in the 500 freestyle.

Thorson said Sequim’s relays looked strong with Sequim taking first place in the 200 medley relay (Nelson, Ellefson, Shinkle and Addison Long) with a time of 2:12.57 and the 400 free relay (Shinkle, Nelson, Beglyakov and Annie Ellefson) with a time of 4:29.86.
