The second half of the Easterns Meet was held Saturday, February 26. Once again, Andover’s preparation for this meet paid off; morning swims catapulted many into the evening, scoring events.

In the end, Andover Girls placed 5^th this year with a team total of 355 points. By combining those points with the boys’ third place total of 529.5 points, the teams earned THIRD PLACE in COMBINED scoring! Amazing! (39 teams total)

Big thanks to parents who supported, supplied food or supplied funds. Thanks as well to the Athletic Department and the team at Paresky Commons. This is truly a special meet that is well worth the time and energy to attend. Germantown Academy does a phenomenal job hosting each year.
