WEST PALM BEACH, October 5, 2019—St. Andrew’s and King’s Academy, two small private schools, took center stage Saturday night at the Palm Beach County Swimming and Diving Championships at Lake Lytal Aquatic Complex.

St. Andrew’s won a record tenth straight combined team title with 736 points. Jupiter was second with 674 and King’s Academy was third with 639 points.

St. Andrew’s Sweeps Palm Beach County Championships, Wins Record Ninth Combined Team Title; Secrest, Nersicio, Balbi Swimmers of the Meet

By Sharon Robb

WEST PALM BEACH, October 6, 2018—Boca Raton St. Andrew’s School owns the Palm Beach County High School Swimming and Diving Championship Series at Lake Lytal Family Aquatic Complex.

On Saturday night, with both talent and depth, the Scots captured a record ninth straight county combined swim title sweeping both the boys and girls team titles.

The Class 1A private school won the girls title with 361 points and boys title with 337.5. No other team in the field managed to score 300 points, but that’s not to say there wasn’t plenty of talent to go around.

Seniors Chade Nersicio of Trinity Christian and Jennifer Secrest of Oxbridge Academy were double winners and both shared Girl Swimmer of the Meet honors.

Nersicio defended her county titles winning the 50-yard freestyle in 22.89 and 100-yard freestyle in 50.34. She was a member of the winning 200- and 400-yard freestyle relays. She finished with 40 points in high point.

Secrest won the 200-yard individual medley in 2:01.23 and 100-yard butterfly in 54.81 and also finished with 40 points.

St. Andrew’s won the 200-yard medley relay in 1:46.33. Defending state breaststroke champion Shayna Fetes was the Scots lone individual girls winner in the 100-yard breaststroke in 1:03.43.

St. Andrew’s senior Josh Balbi was named the Male Swimmer of the Meet and finished with 40 points. He won the 100-yard butterfly in 50.12 and 100-yard backstroke in 50.16. He was also a member of the winning 400-yard freestyle relay as the anchor leg.

The Scots swept all three relays to pile up the points.

Jupiter’s Varis Malone and Josh Zuchowski of King’s Academy were also double winners.

The diving competition was held Friday at Wellington Aquatic Complex.

Trinity Christian sophomore Chloe Bishop won the girls 1-meter title with 413.35, the only diver to crack 400 points. Boca Raton’s Emilie Moore was second with 394.25.

Jupiter senior Will Lefebvre won the boys diving title with 493.90 points followed by Jupiter junior Tyler Coffey with 454.05 and St. Andrew’s junior Jack Patton with 406.65. The trio were the only divers to score more than 400.

A record 909 high school swimmers and divers from 32 schools competed in the well-organized two-day meet which featured Division II Championships with 549 lower-seeded swimmers on Friday and 360 swimmers in the Division I prelims and finals on Saturday.

Unlike the Broward County Athletic Association which features only BCAA-member schools, the Palm Beach County Championships feature private and public schools to determine a true county champion.

By Sharon Robb

October 17, 2014—South Florida Aquatic Club turned in some outstanding relay and individual swims on Day Two of the fourth annual Mike Horgan Memorial Invitational Meet at the Lake Lytal Family Aquatic Center in West Palm Beach.

Erika Pelaez, 9, won three events and finished second in two others to lead the girls team.

Pelaez won the 200-yard freestyle in 2:11.80, 100-yard individual medley in 1:11.66 and 50-yard backstroke in 32.11. All three were lifetime-best times. Pelaez was also second in the 50-yard freestyle in 28.07 and 50-yard butterfly in 31.48, also best times.

SOFLO’s girls 11-12 200-yard medley relay of Kayla Cunningham, Molly Golding, Daniela Curbelo and Katrina Del Vecchio won in 1:58.48 ahead of Coral Springs and Jupiter.

Cunningham, 12, was also second in the 200-yard backstroke in a best time 2:17.12.

John Paul Handal and Rafael Rodriguez were SOFLO’s individual boys’ winners.

Handal, 12, won the 100-yard individual medley in a best time 1:03.73, shaving 3.83 seconds off his previous best time. Rodriguez, 13, won the 100-yard backstroke in a best time 56.97, dropping 0.65 and was third in the 200-yard freestyle in 1:49.13.

The three-day meet concludes on Sunday with final session of timed finals.

The meet is named in honor of Mike Horgan, Lake Lytal’s head developmental coach, who died of a heart attack at age 50 in August, 2011. A double lung transplant recipient in 2000, Horgan had cystic fibrosis his entire life but never let it damper his enthusiasm as a tireless teacher and coach.
