SWIM RECAP FROM COACH LIND:
Boys and girls both finished 6th place overall at our State tournament in Benton Saturday. That being said, our swimmers swam their fastest times of the year. We had 13 personal bests across 13 different events, some swimmers shattering their previous time like Tyler Edwards by over 6 seconds.
Freshman Callie Kohler is individual State Champion in the 50 free as well as the 100 backstroke. Her 100 backstroke beat the second place swimmer by almost 7 seconds!
Senior Benny Vetter won the silver medal in the 100 free as well as the 50 free. He was beaten only by Parker Rodgers of Batesville who broke several state records. The 50 free race was decided by only 0.84 seconds. Senior Ajay Reiss also took the podium in the 50 freestyle, posting the best time of his life at 23.91. Senior Peeka Traver posted the best time of her career in the 100 freestyle bringing home the silver medal in the event. Traver also earned her best time in the 100 breaststroke, dropping time by 1.83 seconds.
Our girls placed 3rd overall in the 200 medley relay as well as the 200 freestyle relay. Their times were the best of the season by far.
Overall, our swimmers were on the podium a total of 13 times. 2 gold (Callie Kohler), 3 silver (Peeka -1, Benny -2), 2 bronze (Girls' 200 Free Relay, Girls' 200 Medley Relay), and then 6 medals of 4th-7th.
HUGE CONGRATS!

Congratulations to the Mr. & Miss MHJH Court! Special congrats to Mr. MHJH Finley Maxey and Miss MHJH Ella Hampton!
The January Leadership Award from First Security Bank goes to Luke James. Here is what his teacher had to say:
Luke is such a great student! He comes to class each day prepared and with a positive attitude. If he misses school, he is quick to come to my room and get any paper copies of missed work. His attitude in class is not only positive, but upbeat, which can really help fuel positive energy throughout the room. Luke is kind to his peers, often offering help when he understands something that a table neighbor might be stuck on. Overall, Luke represents MHJH and the community in a positive way and is deserving of the Student of the Month award.
