The Dawson County swim team wrapped up the season with two of their largest events of the season as the teams competed Jan. 30 in the Last Chance Meet in Adairsville and Feb. 2 in the Spartan-Mustang Relays. After a pair of successful competitions during the final weeks of January, the Tigers entered the Last Chance Meet with high hopes for several swimmers. Unfortunately, on the day of the meet itself five swimmers were stricken by illness and the team was unable to take the pool at full strength. “On Thursday we had five swimmers out sick,” Head Coach Linda Sperin said. “We did a good job despite having to compensate for the missing swimmers.”
