Tuesday's results - Swimming, Soccer & Tennis

The OHHS girls swim team moved to 2-0 in league meets with a convincing 132-53 team win over visiting Stanwood.

Unlike the previous two meets, the 'Cats didn't win all 11 swimming events, letting Stanwood take the 200 freestyle and 200 Individual Medley races. From there, however, it was all Oak Harbor as the girls won every other event. New in the win column this week for the Wildcats was diving. We had 4 girls participate, up from 2 in the last meet, and winning the diving competition was Michelle Maxwell, earning just shy of 105 points.

Also in action was the boys tennis team, who traveled to Cascade HS to make up a rained out match. #1 singles Derek Thomas is out again, so Paul Jewell moved into the #4 singles spot, and was the only Wildcat to win his match, beating his opponent 6-3, 6-1. Josh Evans in the #3 spot went to 3 sets, 6-2, 3-6, 2-6 as did #1 Ryan Evans, 2-6, 6-4, 1-6. Another tough match was #2 Jordan Kingma, who went down in straight sets, but pushed the first set to a 7-6 (4) score!

In Doubles, #2 partner Rick Baleros was not able to play, which moved Geoff Worley into the #4 doubles spot. Unfortunately, all 3 doubles team went down in straight sets, giving Cascade a 6-1 team victory.

At Wildcat Memorial Stadium, a goal by Ashley Strassburg with 34:00 left in the second was all the team would need as the JV team posted their first victory of the year. Goalkeeper Maggie Gorman played well, stopping numerous shots to secure the 1-0 victory.

Things weren't so rosy on the varsity side, as two goals in the 1st half by Cascade and one more in the 2nd dropped the team to 1-6 on the season.
