Milan Swimmers Shine at Invitational

December 17, 2024 Abby Brinson

On Saturday, the Milan Indians swim team traveled to South Dearborn to compete in one of the largest invitationals in the area. The event featured eight schools, including teams from Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio, offering Milan a rare opportunity to face out-of-state competition. This invitational provided a valuable benchmark for the team’s progress against some of the top swim programs in the Tri-State region.

Milan’s girls put in a stellar performance, earning a strong 2nd-place finish behind highly ranked Ryle from Union, Kentucky. The boys team also impressed, claiming 3rd place out of seven schools, trailing only Ryle and a solid Oldenburg team.
