Janesville Craig High School notched its first Big Eight Conference girls swimming victory, topping Beloit Memorial, 111-59, in the Beloit College pool.

The Cougars improved to 1-0-1 in conference duals. Beloit fell to 0-2.

The meet was shifted to Beloit College due to maintainence problems at the Purple Knights’ pool.

“It turned out good for us because Beloit High School does not have starting blocks, and it makes timest slower,” Craig coach Brian Kitzman said. “We were glad to start off blocks.’’

The Cougars won nine of the 11 events. Hailey Schneider won the 100 butterfly in 1:02, and the 100 backstroke in 1:05.63. Teammate Betsy Collins won the 50 freestyle in 26.79 and the 100 breaststroke in 1:21.27.
