There was further success for Arbroath High’s much-travelled band of swimmers, this time in the Scottish Schools Relay Championships, held last week in Edinburgh. The team of Blair Geddes, Luke Shepherd, Nathan Watt and Taylor Young took second place and the silver medal in the open age group 4 x 50 metre freestyle relay.

 Not content with one national medal the boys then added a bronze in the 4 x 50 metre medley relay, with Luke swimming backstroke, Taylor on the breaststroke leg, Nathan swimming butterfly and Blair taking the team home on freestyle for a place on the podium.

 Congratulations also go to S1 pupils Ally Morrison and Ashley Thomson on their performances at the recent Angus Schools swimming gala. Ally took gold in the 50m Backstroke with a time of 35.28 while Ashley also won gold in the 50m Butterfly in a time of 33.42.
