SWIMMING STATE CHAMP?
The area did not have an individual or relay state title via the swimming portion of the meet last season.
However, the Firestone senior tandem of Leanna Hoover of Bethany Haver finished first and second in the Division I state one-meter diving event under Falcons diving coach Kathy Kirk at C.T. Branin Natatorium in Canton.
Hoover, the state champ, is a freshman diver at the University of Akron. Haver, the state runner-up, is a freshman diver at Washington & Jefferson College.
