Posted

The Pagosa Springs High School Lady Pirate swim team will dive back into action for the 2025 portion of its schedule on Tuesday, Jan. 7.

Action is set to begin at 4 p.m. at Adams State University, with Sargent High School serving as the competition’s host.

The meet will be the fourth of the season for the Lady Pirates, with coach Heather Miller previously noting, “Big areas we will work on in the next few weeks is stretching out more on sprint freestyle and continuing to build endurance and speed.”

She later noted the team would also be working on starts and turns before diving back into action next week following a number of disqualifications at the team’s final meet of 2024. 

The team is heading into the 2025 portion of its schedule with one state qualification in the books: The 200-yard medley relay team of Marlowe Hedgecock, Leah Blackman, Chloe Gantt and Asia Gorman qualified at the team’s first meet of the season after logging a time of 2 minutes, 19.49 seconds.

State is scheduled for Feb. 7 and 8.
