DI Flying Fish dive into 4th place at annual City Swim Meet

It was close, but no victory celebration for the Daniel Island Flying Fish swim team.

 

Coach Rose Van Metre’s team put up some impressive finishes and showed a lot of heart during the annual City Swim Meet, which was contested last weekend at the North Charleston Aquatic Center. 

 

The Flying Fish finished fourth in one of the closest meets in more than a decade as only 135.5 points separated the top four teams.

 

Daniel Island was in first place after the first day of the meet but Snee Farm surged on the second day, demonstrating their depth in the older age groups, and won its eighth consecutive Coastal Aquatic Association title with 2,781 points to edge North Charleston, which tallied 2,762.5. 

 

Northbridge Terrace was third with 2,666 points and the Flying Fish claimed fourth with 2,624.5 points.
