Tedrick leads NR-E swimmers at Duluth meet

Posted

DULUTH— Senior swimmer Lily Tedrick continued a string of strong performances this week as she finished in the top two in three events against a large field at the Soderlind Invitational at Duluth East, on Saturday. Her performance helped Northeast Range-Ely to a sixth-place team finish in a field of nine schools, most of them much larger than NR-E.
Tedrick topped thirty other swimmers in the 100 Breaststroke, with a time of 1:15.03, just edging second-place finisher Norah Gunderson of Proctor-Hermantown by sixteen-hundredths of a second. Tedrick took second in the 200 IM, with a time of 2:30.50, less than two seconds behind Gunderson, who topped the field in the IM.
But others on the team stepped up as well. Senior Morgan McClelland posted the top split time for NR-E in the 200 Medley Relay for a second-place finish in a field of 23. McClelland posted strong finishes in two freestyle events, taking sixth among 31 swimmers in the 100 Free with a time of 1:03.49. She also finished seventh among 27 swimmers in the 200 Free with a time of 2:20.24.
Senior Maggie Dammann posted a tenth-place finish in the 100 Backstroke, with a time of 1:17.64.
As a team, NR-E tallied 192 points during the meet. Sauk Rapids dominated the field with a combined total of 637 points.
NR-E will take part in the Taconite Invitational on Saturday, at Mesabi East, with a 1 p.m. start. They’ll be at International Falls on Tuesday, with a 3 p.m. start.
