Ashlee Korsberg posted impressive wins 200 and 500 freestyles. Her twin sister Alexa won the 100 butterfly. Deborah Daly took first in the diving. Other winners were Maeve Awiszus (100 backstroke) and Maggie D'Innocenzo  (100 breaststroke).

Geena Denny scored her second straight impressive meet, winning he 500 freestyle (6:03.45), knocking 11 seconds off her personal best, and swam on the winning 200 medley relay as Andover topped North Andover 98-60. Sydney Seo won the 200 IM for the Knights.

Erin Weir scored victories in the 100 freestyle and 50 freestyle and Mary Lavery won the 200 IM and 100 breast stroke as Central Catholic topped North Andover 84-70.

Methuen freshmen Rachelle Gauvin and Jenna Albrecht both won two individual events despite not swimming in their specialties, and were on two winning relay teams as Methuen ripped North Andover 91-70 to improve to 3-2. Junior Kelly Lennon also had a big meet for the Rangers.
