Swimming
As captain of the swim team,
Dan Campione
showed tremendous improvement this year as a sophomore
bringing his 'A' game to the pool at every competition.
Coming off of a strong freshmen season with a few records to
show for it, Dan made his presence known throughout the
season and especially at the conference meet. He made
a top 6 finish in the 50-yard freestyle along with a 3rd
place finish in the 100-yard backstroke and 2nd place in the
200-yard backstroke. Dan will remain a strong
influence on the team as he vies for a gold medal finish in
the upcoming season.

Team Records Held:
5 individuals, 4 relays
Erik Hoffer
came out of last year's freshmen year with a conference
championship gold medal in the 1650-yard freestyle and
placed in the top 6 in two other events. He also set a
few Monmouth individual and relay records in the process and
received a "Midwest Conference Swimmer of the Week" award.
Faced with shoulder problems his sophomore year, Erik handed
the spotlight over to Campione for the season and managed to
help the team score points in relays at the conference meet.

Jim Travnik (not pictured) came in as a
freshmen this year looking to add some depth to the Fighting
Scots swim team. A distance freestyle swimmer in
high school, Jim continued to stick with the long events and
scored big at the conference meet, which included a 4th
place finish in the 1650-yard freestyle. Jim will
continue to be a threat in the long distance events as we
look forward to the upcoming season.

Brandon Sahlhoff, along with Dan and Erik, was
one of the six men that led the men's team to a 4th place
finish in 2005 in the school's first swim season in over
twenty years. In the process Brandon managed to pull
off three top 12 finishes and was a great asset to the relay
teams at the beginning and end of each day's of competition.
Although he took his sophomore year off, we look for Brandon
to do great things as he gets back in the water this
upcoming season.
Tennis
Matt Moser
had an outstanding tennis season this past spring as he beat
all of the odds and surprised everyone in the Midwest
Conference. In early April he received the title of
"Midwest Conference Performer of the Week" after winning 7
consecutive singles matches, but he was nowhere near the end
of this streak. He then went on to win the #5 singles
championship for the Midwest Conference and finished the
season on an amazing 18-game winning streak. Matt was
the lone star of the team throughout the season as he kept
the Scots in contention.

Golf
Jeff Malek
was an integral part of the Fighting Scots golf team this
past spring. He showed great integrity throughout the
season as he remained one of the more consistent scorers on
the team. He enjoyed his time as the senior captain of
the team and his leadership will be missed as he graduates
this year.
Mike Wilmoth
was the other senior playing on the team this past season.
He played in many of the matches and managed to help out the
team when it mattered most. His presence will
definitely be missed on the golf course next spring.
Sophomore Erik
Hoffer and freshmen Ryan Powers evened
out the team with a few matches each and look to improve
their golf games in the summer in preparation for next
year. |
