Indian Hill boys win district swim title, Summit Country Day girls finish as runner-up

District swims have wrapped up and a number of local tickets have been punched to the OHSAA state championships from Feb. 21-25.

The top 32 individuals and 24 relay teams across the state make the cut to the state tournament. Here are how the locals did in in the Division II districts to make an attempt at getting to Canton.

Indian Hill dominates behind Holmes, Zhao

In the boys meet, Indian Hill put together 286.5 team points, claiming the district championship by outpacing runner-up Oakwood by 61.5 points.

Indian Hill finished in first in six different events, led by the state's top swimmer and Stanford signee Gibson Holmes. Holmes broke his own district mark in the 200-yard IM and also won the 100-yard butterfly while taking part in Indian Hill's 200-yard medley relay and 400-yard freestyle relay championship squads.

Indian Hill sophomore Jason Zhao was also a member of those relay winners while also being a part of the 200-yard freestyle relay champs. As an individual, Zhao won the 500-yard freestyle by nearly three seconds.

CHCA and Badin top the podium

Indian Hill may have been the popular team atop the podium, but it wasn't the only school to claim individual titles.

Badin junior Patrick Gibbons swam the 200-yard freestyle event in 1:44.02, .8 seconds faster than Wyoming's Carter Hagenauer to claim first. Gibbons' time will be the ninth-best among all state qualifiers.

After finishing as runner-up to Holmes in the 100-yard butterfly, CHCA senior Logan Ottke took home another title in the 100-yard breaststroke that he holds the district record in from his swim last season. Ottke is the defending Division II state champion in the breaststroke.

Alter wins, but a tight race follows

Kettering Alter won the team championship in the girls meet with 271 points, but a tight grouping of locals followed. Summit Country Day, Mariemont and Indian Hill finished in second, third and fourth, all within 26 points. Summit Country Day led that pack of three with 214 points and Mariemont was just behind with 212. Indian Hill capped off its finish with 188 points.

Madeira, CHCA and Cincinnati Country Day also finished in the top 10 in the district.

Latimer and Bacher own the freestyle

Mariemont's Mia Latimer and CHCA's Taylor Bacher combined for three of the four solo freestyle titles.

Bacher, a sophomore, first claimed the 200-yard freestyle in 1:50.22 and then swam the 500-yard event in 4:55.89 for her second district title of the meet.

Mariemont senior Latimer was the runner-up in the 50-yard freestyle with a 23.82, just .03 seconds behind Versailles swimmer Tiana Mescher. In the 100-yard swim, Latimer flipped the script in 51.73, winning the event while Mescher followed by one-fourth of a second.

Mariemont and CHCA add on, Roger Bacon also wins

In the 100-yard breaststroke, Roger Bacon freshman Reese Reilly won in 1:05.53, edging Mariemont's Lydia Eberlein by just .01 seconds while another Mariemont swimmer, Ava Ellis, swam to third place.

Mariemont was able to tack on another title in the 200-yard medley relay, winning in 1:48.74 over second place Summit Country Day's 1:49.86.

Behind sophomore Julia Shafer, CHCA added another title. Shafer brought back the 200-yard individual medley trophy with her swim of 2:03.85.
