CARMICHAEL, Calif. – The St. Francis swimming team won eight of the 10 events led by several strong individual performances in preparation for the NorCal Championships this weekend.

“This was a meet where we needed to show up and we took care of business,” said Head Coach Richard Levin.

Sophomore Emily Bartylla won the 100-yard breaststroke ( (1:14.26) and finished second in the 50 freestyle (26.81) while participating on the winning 200-yard medley relay  with Caroline Urkov, Emily Peters and Audrey Camarillo and second-place 400-yard free relay.

“We take away the spirit from the meet,” said Bartylla. “It is a smaller meet at home and we can really be there for each other.”

Head coach Richard Levin credited Bartylla for her contribution this season.

“She is growing into a team leader,” said Levin. “She is our fastest breaststroker and the second fastest 500 swimmer behind Chloe Mitchell. There is a bright future for that young lady. She is a hard worker, loves St. Francis and is a great addition to the varsity as a sophomore.”

Senior McKenna Peterson won the 200-yard freestyle in 2:06.17 and was second in the 100-yard free. Junior Tatum Roepke won the 100 butterfly in 1:04.68 and was on the winning 200-yard free relay (Gabby Casentini, Alanna Carlin and Aubrey Camarillo) and 400-yard free relay with Urkov, Ally Jeffers and Emily Peters, who was also second in the 100 fly (1:06.18) and third in the 100 breast (1:20.92).
