Congratulations Cooperstown Varsity Girls Swimming!🎉

🏊‍♀️ HAWKEYES MAKE A SPLASH AT TVL CHAMPIONSHIPS!

Congratulations to our Cooperstown varsity girls swimming team on an outstanding performance at the Tri Valley League (TVL) Championships on Friday, Oct. 23, at New Hartford High School!

The Hawkeyes finished third out of seven teams, with some incredible individual accomplishments along the way!

Of the team's 21 swim performances, 16 resulted in personal-best or season-best times! Eight of Cooperstown's nine competing swimmers recorded at least one personal or season best.

🌟 Senior Emily Kane had a record-breaking meet!
–Set a new TVL league AND meet record in the 200 Individual Medley (2:15.65).
–Set a new TVL meet record in the 100 Breaststroke (1:07.64).
–Qualified for the NYSPHSAA Championships in the 100 Breaststroke! She'll compete at Webster Aquatic Center from Nov. 19-21.
–Earned TVL Swimmer of the Year honors!

Emily also currently holds the top 200 Individual Medley time in Section III as she looks ahead to sectionals and a potential second event at states!

👏 Sportsmanship Spotlight: Emily Kane and Shelby Haberbusch were selected by their teammates as Cooperstown's recipients of the newly introduced TVL Sportsmanship Award!

A tremendous amount of hard work went into these performances, with several swimmers shaving significant time off events they've competed in throughout the season.

Congratulations to all our Hawkeyes swimmers and coaches on a fantastic championship meet! We're proud of you!
