As a result of times on Thursday evening at the Parson’s swim meet, Bobby Kemmerer and Oliver Witt will be the first Fort Scott High School swimmers in school history to swim at the Kansas 1A-5A State High School Swim meet.
Oliver qualified for state in the 200 freestyle with a time of 1.56.65 and a consideration time in the 100 butterfly.
Bobby qualified in two races, the 100 free with a time of 50.98 and the 100 breaststroke with a time of 1.06.32.
In addition to qualifying for state, Bobby and Oliver took first in both of their individual races and their relay teams took two first places in the 200 Medley and the 400 Free.

The state meet is in Topeka on February 20-22.
FSHS swimmers are building a winning tradition one stroke at a time. TIGER Proud!
