Wellesley may have won the team title but North Andover likely provided the most fireworks Friday at the Division 2 state swim meet. Michigan recruit Malia Amuan took home four titles (2 individual, 2 relays) including smashing the meet and state records with a 49.73 in the 100 freestyle. The old state mark was a 50.09 by Eagle-Tribune MVP Michaela Chokureva of Andover in 2019. She also demolished the 22-year-old meet record in the 200 IM, finishing about a half-second off the state record. She had plenty of help as Hannah Wieczorek, Allie Shea and Diya Ackerman-Vallala also had brilliant meets with Wieczorek also bringing home four golds. The Knights finished fifth as a team.

Carli Quinlan won the 100 freestyle with a fine time of 56.07 and was on two winning relay teams as Haverhill shaded North Andover 95-89 to end its dual meet season with a 7-3 record.

Methuen-Tewksbury swimming downed Lowell, 102-46, to wrap up a 10-0 regular season. Coach Jason Smith said the 10 wins and unbeaten regular season were both firsts for the school/program. Jenny Nguyen won the 200 IM, Marissa Connolly won the 100 free, and Katie Lefebvre rolled in the 500 free and 100 breaststroke.

Leading by 2 points, Haverhill swimming won the final relay to shade Central Catholic, 97-89. Jackie Story, Kenzie Hillsgrove, Kailyn Aquino and Carli Quinlan made up that 400 freestyle relay squad.

Hannah Wierczorek, Annie Wolfenden and Diya Ackerman-Vallala all won two events as North Andover dunked Lowell in swimming, 97-58.

Maya Flatley won two events and was on two winning relays as Andover's depth was too much for Haverhill in a 100-83 victory.
