Congratulations to this week’s Showcase Cinemas High School Team of the Week: North Providence High School Boys Swim Team!
This week’s spotlight was sent in by Stefanie Blankenship:
Congratulations the Boys Swim Team for their Division 2 State Championship win Saturday against Westerly High School. The Boys defeated Westerly 54-40 and had some incredible swims! The team had 7 first place finishes out of the 11 total events. First Place GOLD was earned by the 200 medley relay of Jayden Ortiz, Jason Kudish, Taj Wehbe and Tony Azevedo; Jason Kudish in the 200 yard Freestyle, Tony Azevedo the 50 freestyle, Taj Wehbe in the 100 Fly, Jayden Ortiz in the 500 free and 100 backstroke, and the 200 Free Relay which included Oscar Camacho, Nicolas Camacho, Tony Azevedo and Jason Kudish. Special shout out to Tony Azevedo who was undefeated in the 50 freestyle all season long, thus the FASTEST in this event in all of Division II! Overall, the team earned 18 new Best Times/Personal Records! The team placed first and second in the first event of the day to go up 9-1 and only increased the lead throughout the meet from there! Please join us in congratulating these boys on their win, but also their resilience and camaraderie in one of the most challenging of years! Go Cougars!
