At the start of the season, Baraboo surprised a few swim observers by winning the Badger North Conference relays -- an all-relay meet that is often a good indicator of a team's strength and depth. In doing so, they knocked off Badger Confernce North rival (and two-time defending state D2 champs) DeForest.
Nearly two months later, the teams finally met in their conference duel meet -- and DeForest turned the tables in a big way, winning 102-68 at Baraboo Tuesday night. The Norskies won eight of the 11 events in the meet, including two impressive wins in the 200 and 400 freestyle relays. Sophomore Casey Wolter and junior Lindsey Verhulst led the way for DeForest, with two individual wins each (Wolter 200/100 frees; Verhulst 50 free/100 breaststroke), and strong relay legs on the winning freestyle relays.
The two teams will see each again later this month at the Badger Conference North season-ending meet, hosted by DeForest, and then at the D2 sectional meet, hosted by Baraboo Nov. 8.
