Sarah Stockwell fell short of one goal, but easily achieved another one during the United States Olympic swim trials last week in Omaha, Neb.<\/p>\n
The Kentlake High graduate, who will be a senior at Indiana University this fall, competed in the 100-meter breaststroke and finished 38th in 1:11.21. That was a personal-best time by more than a full second from her entry mark of 1:12.24, and Stockwell said prior to the trials that a PR was her primary goal. She also was hoping to make the top 16, but while missing out on that, she still climbed considerably from her 84th-seeded entry position.<\/p>\n
Courtney Eronemo, a Kentwood graduate who won five state high school titles in five different events and will be a junior at the University of California-Berkeley, placed 45th in the 200 individual medley in 2:18.92, and 59th in the 400 IM in 4:56.12.<\/p>\n
Two Kent residents who just graduated from Kennedy High School in Burien last month also were at the trials.<\/p>\n
Brianne Lindblad, who won four consecutive Class 3A titles in the 100-yard backstroke and 11 state gold medals overall during her four years with the Lancers, swam the 100-meter back in Omaha, and was 114th in 1:05.62. Lindblad will attend Rutgers University on a swimming scholarship.<\/p>\n
Kevin Munsch, a state 100-yard breaststroke champion and also a multiple state titleist with the Lancers, was 72nd in the 100-meter breast in 1:06.17. Munsch is headed to defending NCAA champion Arizona on a swimming scholarship.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
