Fallston's girls won the team title for the second straight year at last night's Harford County swimming championships despite not winning a single race.
The Cougars used their depth to score 273 points, outlasting C.M. Wright (237) and Bel Air (222). Fallston had two second- place finishes along with five thirds.
Taylor Brown (500-yard freestyle) and Emily Wagner (100 breaststroke) gave the Cougars the second-place finishes. The Cougars took third in the 200 medley, 200 freestyle and 400 freestyle relays while Annie Oleszczuk was third in the 100 backstroke and the 200 freestyle.
C.M. Wright's Lisa King (100 butterfly, 200 freestyle) and Lauren Buck (200 IM, 500 freestyle) won two races apiece. Bel Air's Amy Balaguer (100 and 500 freestyle) also won twice to help the Bobcats take third.
The boys portion of the championships will take place tonight at Magnolia Middle School. Fallston will try to complete a sweep for the second straight year.
