Sinai, Eastport-South Manor, Babylon, Rocky Point, Patchogue-Medford, Copiague, Comsewogue, Longwood, Middle Country, and Miller Place converged at Hauppauge High School for nine individual events.

Ruth Crane was the Bears’ top finisher of the day with a 26.35 performance in the 50 free. Amelia Griffin, Kaitlyn Tse, and Sofia Arrascue also turned in top five performances for the Bears. The team is back in the water today in a non-league meet at Hauppauge.
