MUSTANGS GO STRONG AT SECTIONAL MEET
The Mundelein Swimming and Diving Team sent out a strong message at the IHSA State qualifying meet in advancing 4 individual swims and 2 relays.
In an extremely fast meet, the Mustangs managed several top 6 swims. Individual State qualfiers were Pat Falconer (200 free-100 free) and Kevin Coughlin (50free-100 free).
The Mustangs erased the disappointing near-misses of the past 2 years in the 200 Free Relay by qualifying this year with Falconer, Coughlin, frosh Will Davidson, and senior Ricky Lukacs.
The Lukacs-Coughlin-Falconer trio joined with senior Zach Purol to qualify 2 seconds under the qualifying time under the 400 Free Relay. Overall the Mustang squad had 97% lifetime best swims
and lots of fans there to see the amazing day! Thanks parents for your support and help all season. We contribute our success to you!
Good luck next week at State!

LIBERTYVILLE 113 - MUSTANGS 73
The Mustangs took on the 5-0 Libertyville Wildcats with some excellent results. Although the final score doesn't show it, there were many lifetime best swims and first places for the Mundelein squad.

First place finishers included Pat Falconer (200 free), Kevin Coughlin (50 free), the 200 Free Relay (Falconer, Coughlin, Will Davidson, Ricky Lukacs), and the 400 Free Relay (Falconer, Coughlin, Zach Purol, Lukacs).

What a week! Mustangs Sting the Zee-Bees and

Mike Begrowicz (200 free, Class B),
Pat Falconer (200 IM, Class A, 100 Free, Class B),
Kevin Coughlin (50 and 100 free Class A),

MUSTANGS GET BACK INTO COMPETITION
After 3 grueling weeks of training, training, and more training, the Mustangs got back into the pool at Lake Forest High School on Thursday night. The Scouts' defending conference champs' squad proved to be too deep for the Mustangs. However, the Swimming and Diving team proved that they could swim and dive better than ever before. Even while beat-up and exhausted, the Mustang squad managed to swim at a lifetime best-swims level. Top performances were had by the 1-2 200 free punch from Pat Falconer and Kevin Coughlin, Coughlin again in the 100 free, the 200 FR (less than 2 seconds off the IHSA State cut), and the 400 FR (4 seconds off the IHSA State cut). The Diving squad tried new dives and were cheered on by an enthusiastic crowd. The experience brought the Mustangs more confidence going into the next week as they take on perennial conference foes, the Warren Blue Devils.
Next up: Saturday, College Events Invite at St. Charles East HS
Jan. 17th: Come out and cheer on the Mustangs take on Warren and honor our Seniors!
