Pineville Rebel swimmers – with ONLY FIVE swimmers – snatched 11th place out of 21 teams! EVERY swimmer scored valuable points and showed up in true Rebel style!

The Boy’s 200 yd Medley Relay started off the excitement with Curtis Malone (Jr) leading off with the 50 yd backstroke. Next came Lethan Dodge (Sr) giving it his all in the 50 breaststroke. Liam Alletag (Jr) followed up with a strong 50 yd butterfly, then Lucas Linsey (Sr) anchored the team bringing them home with 50 yd freestyle. 10th place overall at 1:52.10

But the boys weren’t done yet. The 200 yd Free Relay with Liam Alletag, Lethan Dodge, Lucas Linzey, and Curtis Malone turned in a great performance – 1:38.62 earning 10th place overall! Well done, gentlemen!

Individually, Pineville swimmers held their own this weekend. Liam Alletag swam a blistering 50 yd free to earn himself 6th place overall with 22.63 seconds! That’s TWO laps for you non-swimmers! Then, Liam turned in another fantastic swim – this time in the Boy’s 100 butterfly – one of the most difficult strokes. He fought his way to 3rd place overall in the State with a 51.34 time!

Tori Broussard (So) had a strong showing in the Girl’s 200 yd IM – earning her a 16th overall at 2:39.30. Tori also swam in the Girl’s 100 yd back, earning 19th overall with a 1:14.55! Way to go, Tori!!

Curtis Malone followed in the Boy’s 200 IM. He battled his way to 2nd place overall at 1:52.10! But the 100 yd back is his love and he proved it – State Champion at 1st place with a 50.80! Great job, Curtis!
These swimmers make this look easy but it’s anything but! Well done to these amazing swimmers who have put in countless hours of practice to make it to this point!

Let’s not forget our coaches – Joie Stanley and Jessica Guidry! Without their time and dedication, none of this would have been possible. Thank you is not enough!

That’s a wrap for the LHSAA Swimming season! GO REBELS!!!
