BREMERTON — The Wolves continued to cut times in numerous events in an Olympic League meet with the Eagles.

“Our third meet was more successful than our previous meets,” Sequim coach Linda Moats said.

“We clinched two first- place finishes, five second- place finishes and four third-place finishes.

“Many of the swims for our team resulted in personal bests. It was great to see everyone swimming so well.”

Wendall Lorenzen won the 200-yard individual medley with a time of 2 minutes, 52.49 seconds, and Liam Payne was second (2:58.29).

“Wendall Lorenzen had a great swim, dropping 11 seconds off his previous best time,” Moats said.

“Liam Payne swam this event for the first time and was under 3 minutes. I expect he will better that time with more work on endurance and strategy.”

Payne won the 100 breaststroke with a time of 1:24.48, topping his previous best mark by 3.5 seconds.

“We made a few changes to his stroke technique this last week and it really paid off,” Moats said.

Christian Goodrich cut 2.7 seconds from his previous best time while finishing second in the 100 freestyle, and Alex Berikoff dropped 3.5 seconds from his 100 free time to finish fourth.

Berikoff cut 1.5 seconds in the 50 free and finished second.

Sequim swims against Olympic at William Shore Memorial Pool in Port Angeles on Thursday.
