While the Kenai swimmers and divers, and the Soldotna swimmers, took the weekend off, Soldotna’s divers competed at the Chugiak Invitational.

Kylin Welch took first, while Sam Skolnik was fifth. The meet included divers from three of the four regions in the state, and 22 boys divers overall. On Facebook, Soldotna diving coach Dennis Reger wrote: “Both boys threw some new and harder dives this weekend and things look very promising for them as we get closer to the end of the season.”
