About this Article

The rubdown tables were out and the faint scent of wintergreen permeated the air inside Barrington’s natatorium on Saturday, as sure a sign as any that it is time to swim fast. And the swimmers sure took the hint at the Barrington sectional. The host Broncos led the way, qualifying winning all three relays in times well below the standard required to race in Friday’s state preliminaries at New Trier. They were the class of the field in the team standings with 272 points, ahead of Stevenson (212), Fremd (172), Cary-Grove (158), Hoffman Estates (111) and Jacobs (98).
