Five members of the Monroe-New Glarus swim team, all New Glarus High School students, competed at the 2021 WIAA Girls Fall Swimming & Diving Championship on Friday last week. Before they left town, driving through streets lined with supporters, the high school held a pep rally for them.
“We are so proud of how the girls ended this season. We had several season best times, as well as some personal best times. Even when they felt tired at practice, they continued to push themselves and the results of them pushing through paid off,” said Coach Rachel Root.
