GOLDSBORO — Southern Wayne teammates Drew Bryan and Daniel Weeks combined for three runner-up performances during a lengthy, multi-team swim meet contested at B.G. Darden Natatorium on Thursday evening.
Bryan, a senior, placed second in the 200-yard individual medley (IM) and 100-yard backstroke. In the IM, Bryan shaved more than 2 1/2 seconds off of his seed time and touched the wall in 2 minutes, 48.45 seconds. He posted a time of 1:15.9 in the backstroke.
Weeks took second in the 500 free. He completed the grueling 20-lap race in 7:32.99. Just minutes before that event, he erased 2.7 seconds off of his seed time and captured fifth in the 100 free.
The duo, along with Evin Williams and anchor leg Dylan Daniels, wound up fifth in the 200 free relay. The foursome entered the event with the best seed time (2:00.55) among its Quad County 3A competitors, but finished in 2:09.21.
The quartet of Bryan, Daniels, Thomas Weaver and Carlos Alvarez claimed seventh in the 200 free relay with a time of 2:05.30.
Sarah Sutton, the lone SW girl, logged top-30 times in the 50 and 100 free.
