Raiders Get Wet!!


Here is an update on our Nathan Hale swimmers, complete with inspiring (if soggy!) images:


  • Hale had 28 swimmers at the Metro Championships, with many of them making it back to the finals. We had many best times and fantastic swims, with Nathan Hale placing 5th out of 11 teams behind O'Dea/Holy Names, Seattle Prep, Lakeside and Bainbridge. Check out the results on the swim page: http://www.halesports.org/swimming/index_swim.php



  • Nine Nathan Hale students were qualifiers for the District 2 Boys' Swimming Championships this Friday and Saturday at Mercer Island: Chris A., Fletcher B., Ben F., Aaron L., Keenan M., Eric N., Kyle Q., Alex R. and Charles Y. Good luck!



  • We had two inspiring swims from our Swimmers of the Meet at Ingraham. Paul W. swam his first ever 200 free and did a great job! He went on to swim more events, along with a relay to help the Raiders take Ingraham. Blythe W. also swam a fantastic 200 to qualify for Metro. She swam a very smart race and it paid off! Congratulations!
