St. Louis Park and Benilde-St. Margaret's girls swim teams competed in a conference exhibition at the Aquatic Park.

For the first time ever, the North Suburban Conference girls swimming relay meet was held outdoors, as the Aquatic Park at St. Louis Park's hosted the season-opening exhibition Thursday afternoon.

"There are a few bugs to work out, like not having starting blocks, but it's great to be out here on a perfect day," swim official Bob O'Hara said.

Scores were not kept for the competition, creating a friendly atmosphere in which swimmers from many of the teams involved met and greeted one another on the warm and sunny day.
