The Yorktown Tigers have dropped one spot in the girls rankings released today by the Indiana High School Swim Coaches Association (IHSSCA). The ladies head into the Thanksgiving break at #16, with 27 rating points. The rankings are based on a theoretical State Meet scored through 16 places, based on times REPORTED to IHSSCA. Not every team reports the results of every meet, a factor that skews how teams are rated.
In fact, that phenomenon impacts Yorktown in this week's poll. IHSSCA ranks Yorktown #12 in the 200 Medley Relay (1:57.76 at the Westfield Invitational), when the Tigers' best time (1:56.42 at Lawrence North) would put them #11 in more accurate rankings.
The same holds true in the 400 Yard Free Relay. IHSSCA puts YHS at #16, based on their 3:59.47 at Westfield on Saturday. The Tigers' 3:48.90 two days earlier at LN would be good enough to move up five places to #11, ahead of powerful Center Grove.
The Tigers have also crept into the rankings in the 200 Free Relay at #28.
Several Tigers continue to carry state rankings in their individual events. Senior Larah Beaver is currently #6 in the 100 Back and #12 in the 100 Free. Junior Jessica Extine is at #10 in the 50 Free and #21 in the 100 Fly. Fellow junior Caroline Grasso gives YHS TWO Top 20 members in the 100 Back rankings, landing at #19 today.
The Tiger girls are back in training, with their next meet scheduled for November 29th, when the boys join them in hosting Hoosier Heritage Conference rival Delta.
GO TIGERS!
