PORTLAND, Ind. — Delta boys swimming's streak of seven straight Jay County sectional titles ended on Saturday, yet the team's mood was anything but dejected.
Head coach Laura Seibold-Caudill and her team were, instead, proud. The Eagles won six events and finished second overall to Norwell despite losing five seniors, including two state champions, from last year's dominant squad, and Seibold-Caudill lauded the group's ability to bond and exceed expectations.
"I am ecstatic. These kids came together and pulled-off an amazing meet ... more importantly (than the win) is the character and quality of the people that we have," Seibold-Caudill said.
