In the relays, Signorelli, Spencer, Rohde and Lilly Madden won the 200 medley with a time of 2:06.58.

 

Johnson and Rohde teamed with Maria Lacaria and Kelsey Dorchak to win the 200 free with a time of 1:57.39.

 

The 400 free squad consisted of Johnson, Signorelli, Lacaria and Spencer and they took first place with a time of 4:17.91.

 

For the boys, Ryan Knapp, Marcel Rodriquez and Randy Keener all won a pair of individual events.

 

Knapp took first place in the 200 IM with a time of 2:24.81 and 100 breaststroke with a time of 1:09.07.

Also for the boys, Luke Pinti won the 200 free with a time of 2:03.66 and Phillip Malenich won the 100 back with a time of 1:01.17.

 

In the relays, Reed Smith was part of all three winning teams. He joined Knapp, Rodriquez and Mason Titchenal in winning the 200 medley with a time of 1:50.66.

 

In the 200 free, Smith teamed with Pinti, Malenich and Kenner to win with a time of 1:39.55.

 

Smith, Knapp, Pinti and Keener made up the 400 free team that won with a time of 3:40.70.

 

The Bridgeport girls are now 7-2 on the season and the defending state champion boys are still undefeated at 9-0. Both teams will be back in action on Wednesday with a dual meet against Buckhannon-Upshur on the campus of West Virginia Wesleyan.

 

“It should be a very competitive meet,” Bridgeport coach Jan Grisso said. “Buckhannon-Upshur has a lot of really good, young swimmers. Plus it’s a great meet for us so we can get in that pool at Wesleyan one more time before the regional meet there."

 

Following the dual meet with B-U, the Indians will compete in the Harrison County championship meet on Friday at Salem.
