Boise State Swimming Team Grabs Huge Lead


Boise State's swimming team is off to a great start at the invitational with New Mexico and Seattle.  Action just got underway so plenty of time to get to the West Boise YMCA off of Cloverdale and Chinden and see this great team.

The Broncos won all eight events yesterday to pile up 426 points to 325 for New Mexico and 168 for Seattle.  Jessica Bottelberge, Heather Harper, Amber Boucher and Stephanie North combined to set a pool record in the 400 medley relay with a time of 3:48:07.  Bottelberghe took the 200 backstroke with a lifetime best of 2:03.76, which ranks second in the Mountain West conference this season.  Harper won the 100 breaststroke, Emily Blasko captured the 500-yard freestyle and Sydney Johanse won the 200 IM with a time of 2:09.77.  Boucher set a season beset in winning the 100 butterfly while North crossed first in the 50-yard freestyle. 

Once again, the second day is underway at the West Y.
