HELENA — Josh Loyda, Jordan Loyda, Jake Cirincione and Logan Streit set new Glacier High School swim records in the 200 and 400 freestyle relays on Saturday at the Bohn-Moerer Invitational.

The foursome turned in a record time of 1:30.48 in the 200 freestyle. That bettered the old mark they also held of 1:31.39.

“They are just four tenths away from breaking the state record,” Flathead/Glacier coach Dave Lillard said.

The state 200 freestyle relay record is 1:30.08.

Loydas, Cirincione and Streit were timed in 3:23.27 for the 400 freestyle relay. That broke their old record by .06.

“We had a rough start,” Lillard said.

“We were a little late (arriving), had a shorter warmup. We were doing some events the newer swimmers were not used to. We had eight DQs (disqualifications) right off the bat. The good point, we came back from it and swam hard.”

For Flathead, Madison Lovett, Darby Mackenstadt and Kendra Leaming all swam the 200 freestyle for the first time. Maggie Mulcahy dropped two seconds in that event.

In the 200 IM, Kendra Wilke made her debut while Lauren Daffern came through with a best time.

Mckenzie Lane had a best time in the 100 butterfly.

“Mulcahy swam a great race (in the 500 freestyle),” Lillard said.

“She’s been struggling to get faster, but today she put all her effort into it and dropped seven seconds. She’s been working hard to do that all season.”

Daffern had a best time in the 100 backstroke. Lovett, Mackenstadt and Leaming competed in the 100 backstroke for the first time.

For Glacier, Josh Loyda had a best time in 100 freestyle, as did Emma Hornby and Streit in the 50 freestyle.

“Alex Augusta broke 26 seconds in the 50 free,” Lillard said.

“Emma (Hornby) broke 28 seconds.”

Best times were turned in by Cirincione in the 100 butterfly; Cristan Sauer, Hornby and Augusta in the 100 freestyle; Streit in winning the 100 freestyle; and Hornby in the 100 backstroke.

“By three seconds,” Lillard said of Hornby’s PB time in the backstroke.

“It was an incredible meet for her.”

Jackie Stenberg won her heat in the 100 breaststroke.

The state meet is next in Hardin Feb. 8-9.
