The Hurst Swim team was recently invited to Brighton College for the ‘Brighton College Summer Splash’. Participating schools included Brighton College, Bede’s, Cranleigh and Roedean.
All swimmers raced five events each, including relays over a relatively short period of time. Many of the students were racing strokes and distances they don’t usually compete in. All pupils swam excellently and did Hurst proud.
The Girls’ team placed 1st overall with an astonishing score of 480 and an incredible 173 points above second place. The Boys’ team placed 2nd overall with a fantastic 246 points. Overall, with points combined, Hurst won the competition!
Next fixture: 18th May at Hurst schools invite meet.
“ The team really stepped up ” Stephen Murphy, Head of Senior School Swimming
