Swimming: The Nick Whyte Invitational Swim Meet

Eaglebrook hosted the tenth annual Nick Whyte Invitational Swim Meet on a beautiful spring-like day on Saturday, February 20. Teams from Kingswood-Oxford School, Athol, Bement School, and Deerfield Academy participated in the pentathlon format, in which the swimmers swim 50-yard races of each stroke and a 100-yard individual medley, then the times are added up and the lowest overall time is the winner. The Eaglebrook boys dominated the events. The overall winner of the meet was Fourth Former Jeffrey Lim, followed by Andrew Brooks ’16, Kevin Li’16, Matt Kenvin ’17, Laith Hijazi ’16, Zo Williams ’16, Tim Barry ’17, Jack Sun ’18, Leon Leung ’16, diver/swimmer Anthony Lo ’16, Stephen Gu ’17, Kevin Chang ’19, Declan Cullinane ’17, Milo Walshe ’16, and Marquis Wong ’17. Divers Thomas Eglin ’16 and diver /swimmer Anthony Lo ’16 put on an exceptional show for the crowd, scoring their highest point totals of the year. Eglin just missed the Eaglebrook School record by a whisker, 2 points! The boys travel to Hopkins School in New Haven, on Saturday February 27, for the Bud Erich Invitational to compete against prep school varsity teams from New England.
