BURBANK HIGH — Before the start of the season, Burbank High swim Coach Adam Wright said that depth would be a huge benefit for his teams.With a fine turnout, the large numbers has allowed the coach to fill races, move athletes around in various events and create some friendly competition for his Bulldogs.
It was that depth that helped the Bulldogs earn a Pacific League sweep Wednesday against cross-town rival Burroughs at Burbank High. In the boys’ portion of the event, Burbank earned a 110-60 victory. In the girls’ portion, however, things were a little closer, as the Bulldogs downed the Indians, 97-69.
Burbank completed the sweep by winning the junior varsity boys, 121-32, and the junior varsity girls, 104-50.“I think for the seniors, they haven’t been able to sweep Burroughs since they were freshmen,” Wright said. “They really wanted to win this one today.”Wright said that depth has been a key for his squads all season.“I look at the numbers over at Burroughs and I think we probably have double the numbers that they have,” Wright said. “This season we just don’t have a lot of numbers, but we have swimmers who have experience. That has helped us a lot.
Burroughs Coach Danny Garcia said his team was anticipating a tough challenge from Burbank. He also added that his swimmers looked to be prepared prior to the meet.“I’ve never seen my team more focused then they [were against Burbank],” Garcia said. “They weren’t goofing around at all and they were ready and focused going in. They just wanted to beat somebody in a blue cap.”
In girls’ competition, Burbank received a fine effort from junior April Hishinuma. Along with winning the 200-yard freestyle in 2 minutes, 14.83 seconds, she also took the 100 backstroke (1:11.02) and teamed up with Rachael Ross, Andrea Kunza and Danielle Reid to win the 400 freestyle relay (4:07.64).
