GCHS swimming second at WAC (Audio)

Garden City, KS (westernkansasnews.com)-When Grace Schmidt touched the wall first, the Garden City swim team had just completed one of most exciting 400-yard freestyle relay races of the season. But in the end, it served only as consolation. 

Despite the exhilarating victory in the meet’s final race, the Buffaloes fell 15 points shy of Great Bend in the WAC meet Thursday at the YMCA in Garden City.
