    Matthew Usher was the other Wildcat to score in invisible events.  Matthew finished 8th in the 200 freestyle in 2:08.54 and 14th in the 100 backstroke in 1:07.74.
    All four relays swam season best times on Sunday as well.  The girls 200 freestyle relay swam three seconds faster and the 400 freestyle relay swam 7 seconds faster.  Those relays consisted of Tejah Scott, Acacia Porch, Lyndee Debetaz, and Emily Holier. 
    The boys 200 freestyle relay of Jack Way, Geremy Porch, Matthew Arnold, and Matthew Usher swam three seconds faster.  Then the 400 freestyle relay of Devin Avery, Geremy Porch, Matthew Arnold, and Matthew Usher swam 6 seconds faster.
