In the recent Cobb county swimming championships, MPC swimmer M. Norton placed first in the 200-yard freestyle and 100-yard backstroke. He also set county records in these two events, plus the 50- and 100-yard lead off in the freestyle relays. He won the 200-yard freestyle with a time of 1:37.81, with the previous record being 1:37.92 set by former Sprayberry standout Ananda Lim in 2018. His record-setting time in the 100-yard backstroke, 49.32, broke Wheeler's Doug Jones' record of 51.09 set in 1988.
Also, congrats to C. Salmon, who placed third overall in the 100-yard backstroke in the Cobb championships. E. Norton placed first overall in the 200-yard freestyle and 500-yard freestyle.
