Watters leads Braves’ sectional contingent

Decatur Daily Democrat:

Action in the annual Indiana High School Athletic Association boys swimming sectional will get underway tonight at 5:30 p.m. at Jay County High School in Portland with Muncie Central and Bellmont among the favored teams.
The latest statewide swim poll conducted by Indiana swim coaches lists Muncie Central in 41st position while Bellmont is 52nd. They are the only two teams entered in the Jay County sectional that are ranked.
Bellmont comes into the fray with the top seeds in three events with Jay Watters holding two of those. Watters has the best heat time in the 50 and 100 freestyle events with times of :21.86 and :49.99 respectively. His time in the 50 freestyle is better than the state cut time of :21.93 (any swimmer who tops the state cut time in the sectional automatically advances to the state finals) while his 100 effort is 1.82 seconds above the state standard of :48.17. He is the only swimmer in the 100 field that has cracked the 50 second barrier this year.....
