Eckhart wins state swimming title



Cypress Creek High School freshman swimmer Kathryn Eckhart led the charge among CFISD representatives at the UIL Class 5A Swimming & Diving Championships this weekend, winning the state championship in the 50 Freestyle with a time of 23.11.

“She had a spectacular swim. She did everything she needed to do perfectly to win,” said Cypress Creek coach Jeff Chandler. “She’s still a freshman, so it’s pretty impressive. She was flying high after she won. I don’t think it sunk in for her until about 30 minutes after the awards ceremony.”

Cypress Woods High School senior Seraphina Van had two top-five finishes at state, placing second in the 200 Individual Medley (2:02.36) and fourth in the 100 Butterfly (55.37). Cy-Fair High School senior Kaelee Mader placed fifth in the 200 Individual Medley.

For the boys, Cy-Fair senior Hudson Rains placed second in 1-meter Diving (466.10); Cypress Creek sophomore Jonathan Edwards placed fourth in the 200 Individual Medley and eighth in the 100 Backstroke (52.15); Cypress Woods senior Shea Kenny placed seventh in the 100 Freestyle (46.47); and Langham Creek High School senior Andrew Keily placed seventh in the 500 Freestyle (4:33.9
