Led by seven individual or relay titles, the Bolles boys racked up 546 points, leaving runner-up South Florida Heat (182) way in the rearview to claim its 35th consecutive state title in the Class 1A meet in Stuart.
The Bolles girls had a closer margin of victory, 374 to the King’s Academy’s 237, but nowhere near in jeopardy of being unseated in winning their 32nd straight state crown.
On Saturday, the Kenny boys won their second straight Class 2A crown by racking up 295.5 points, well in front of runner-up Rockledge (188).
Carter Lancaster clocked a 1 minute, 45.02 seconds time in the 200 individual medley to set a state record in the event. His brother, Kayden, notched a title in the 500 free and a runner-up performance in the 200 free. Andrew Kravchenko also had a 1-2 day, winning the 50 free and taking runner-up in the 100 free. Landon Kyer (100 back) and Williams Heck (100 breast) also won those events for the Bulldogs. Bolles also won the 200 medley relay and the 400 free relay.
The Bolles girls were sharp, using their depth to dot the podium in Stuart. The 200 free relay team won state in 1:32.82.
Julia Murphy (100 fly) and Lila Higgo (100 back) took runner-up finishes in their events. The 200 medley relay and 400 free relay teams took silver.
In 2A, Kenny was superb. It swept the three relay events, got an individual championship from Barrie Snyder (50 free) and sprinkled in podiums throughout the event. Kenny’s Carter Wright was runner-up in the 100 back and Zachary Jones was runner-up in the 200 IM to Stanton’s Mehdi Elaoufir, a double state champ.
In addition to the 200 IM, he won the 100 free as well. Beachside’s Peter Manelis gave the first-year Barracudas a strong state meet, taking runner-up in the 100 fly and 100 breast. Also for the boys, Paxon’s Cameron Watson (200 free) and West Nassau’s Brody Singley (500 free) were state runners-up.
For the 2A girls, Stanton diver Rylie Darkatsh won her third straight individual state title. And the Bishop Kenny girls finished state runner-up in the 200 free relay.
