Seaholm Boys Win State Swimming Championship

Seaholm scored 295 points to Groves' 287 points. Dexter came in third with 265 points.

The two schools have been facing off all season, taking first and second at meets throughout the year. However, Seaholm had the edge this year, , the Feb. 5 Oakland County meet and the Seaholm v. Groves meet Jan. 27, where Seaholm defeated Groves by two points.
