BOYS SWIMMING: KL takes fifth at league meet

It wasn’t the result Kentlake wanted, a fifth place finish at the South Puget Sound League boys swim and dive championship on Saturday, but the Falcons didn’t have an answer for the sheer depth of Curtis, Beamer and Kentridge, which finished one-two-three.

The bright spots for Kentlake individually were Erik Fulmer, who touched the wall first in 2 minutes, 6.27 seconds in the 200 yard individual medley as well as winning the 100 backstroke, and Tanner Keeling-Garcia who won 100 freestyle in 51.30 and took second in the 500 free.

Kentlake’s 200 yard medley team of Kyle Koon, Adam Felcyn, Christian Knoblock and Tyler Royal finished ninth while the 200 free relay team of Keeling-Garcia, Knoblock, Fulmer and David Dougherty took fifth place.

Knoblock finished sixth in the 200 free.

The Falcons wrapped up the meet with another fifth place spot in the 400 free relay with Fulmer, Keeling-Garcia, Dougherty and Koon.
