RHS’s individual winners included: Nolan Francis in the 100-yard butterfly (55.57 seconds) and 100 breaststroke (1:08.27); Martin Hoger in the 100 freestyle (57.63) and 100 backstroke (1:08.55); Zach Laxton in the 200 freestyle (2:35.45) and 500 freestyle (7:04.72); Devon Gaber in the 50 freestyle (26.63); and Thaddeus Heck in the 200 individual medley (2:30.16).

The Hodags’ David King placed second in both the 200 individual medley (2:31.54) and 100 butterfly (1:03.58). The team’s other individual runner-up finishers were Conor Natrop in the 100 backstroke (1:18.05), Gaber in the 100 freestyle (58.64) and Heck in the 100 breaststroke (1:10.65).

ANTIGO 93, HODAGS 70

RHS had six first-place finishes and came in second in four events Friday when the Hodags lost their conference dual meet at Antigo, 93-70.
