The Windham Girls and Boys Swimming and Diving Teams were victorious in their opening meet of the year against the Portland Bulldogs. 

 

Windham girls defeated Portland Girls 112-70

The Girls used a combination of depth throughout the events to take an early lead and hang on.  The Windham girls won all three relays and were paced by Elaine Miller who set two school records in the 50 free and the 500 free.  McKayla Eskilson (200 Free, 100 Fly), Ashley Crocker (200 IM), Elaine Miller (50, 500 Free), and Caitie Greep (100 Free) were first place finishers for the eagles.

 

Windham Boys defeated Portland Boys 105-60

The boys team fell behind early as Portland won the first relay and outscored the eagles in diving.  Windham came back to win the 200 free relay and the 400 free relay team of Nick Sundquist, Jake Shoberg, Alex Gilvey, and Nathan Paluso surpassed the old school record by more than 10 seconds.  Nick Sundquist (200, 500 Free), Nathan Paluso (200 IM, 100 Back) Jake Shoberg (50, 100 Free), Lance Webster (100 Fly, 100 Breast) were first place finishers.  Windham Girls and Boys teams are both 1-0.
