Bader sets new records


Alex Bader made the final home dual meet of her club swimming career one to remember.

Bader, a 2018 Jay County High School graduate and future Ball State University Cardinal, set a team and pool record in the 200-meter freestyle as she helped the Jay County Summer Swim Team blow past Bellmont, 929-134, on Monday at Portland Water Park. 

Bader, who also got a victory in the butterfly, won the 200 freestyle with her time of 2 minutes, 13.23 seconds. She bested her own team record, and broke a pool record set in 1978.

Jay County had three triple-event winners — Chase McFarland (open 200 freestyle, long freestyle and short freestyle), Mara Bader (long freestyle, backstroke and short freestyle) and Jason Minnich (backstroke, individual medley, breaststroke).

Dual winners were Elayna Paro (IM, breaststroke), Eliza Bader (long freestyle, breaststroke), Hannah Laux (butterfly, IM), Dorane Beiswanger (breaststroke, short freestyle), Jacob Monroe (long freestyle, short freestyle), Mikalah Shauver (butterfly, IM), David Keen (butterfly, breaststroke), Raif Beiswanger (backstroke, breaststroke) and Lauren Fisher (breaststroke, short freestyle).

Morgan DeHoff, Vivienne Kunkler, Elizabeth McDowell, Kenzie Clayton, Skylynn Powell, Isaac Miller, Timo Minnich, Emily Dues, Damian Hicks, Kyle Sanders, Rieley Brewster, Bode Malott, Cohen Henry, Emma LeMaster, Josh Monroe, Joseph Dow, Kenna Arnold, Lani Muhlenkamp, Kali Wendel each won a single event.

Arnold won the 8-and-younger long freestyle for the first individual victory of her swimming career.

Jay County travels to Union City tonight for its final dual meet of the season before hosting the Wabash Valley Conference Championships on Saturday.
