Girls Finals

Corona del Mar 248, Villa Park 178, Santa Margarita 160, Glendora 140, San Clemente139
A fast start led to a top finish for Corona del Mar.

The Sea Kings showed off a veritable fountain of youth as freshmen and sophomores led them to the girls’ championship of the Southern Section Relays for the first time in Coach Doug Volding’s 20-year tenure Saturday night at Belmont Plaza in Long Beach.

Freshman Stephanie Gabert anchored Corona del Mar’s 4x100 individual medley and 4x50 breaststroke relays as the Sea Kings won those events as well as 6x50 freestyle relay in the first three races of the night.

“I knew they were talented and they were excited, but I didn’t expect that,” Volding said. “I don’t know where to start. It was a total team effort from the first girl to the last.”

Corona del Mar, ranked number two in the Southland by The Times, ran away with the competition from there, scoring a total of 248 points while winning four of seven events overall and finishing out of the top two only in the 4x50 butterfly and 4x50 medley relays.

Villa Park, the defending champion in the meet, placed a distant second with 178 points, followed by Santa Margarita, which used consistency and depth to place third with 160 points despite not finishing among the top three in any event.

Glendora finished fourth with 140 points after winning the final two events, and San Clemente wound up in fifth place with 139 points.
