Parker swimmers finish fourth

STOUGHTON — McFarland High School’s boys swim team, a WIAA Division 2 powerhouse, dominated Saturday’s Stoughton Invitational.

The Spartans won eight events to easily take the nine-team invitational title with 743 points. Janesville Parker was fourth with 321.

Saturday’s meet used all college events and distances, which Parker coach Eric Rhodes said made for an interesting day.

“I like the meet and how it is set up, but I think some of our kids, after swimming longer distances in a lot of races, weren’t too excited about it,” Rhodes said. “But we had a pretty good day, and it’s always fun to swim against such good competition.

“McFarland has got a really good team with some excellent freestylers, and there were a lot of other really talented swimmers here.”

Parker’s Marcus Genrich finished third in the 200 breaststroke, and also swam on the 200 freestyle relay team that finished third. Other members of the relay team were Nick Olin, Markus Murdy and Caleb Sigmund.
