Habersham Central’s girls 200-yard freestyle relay team consisting of Sadie Hagel, Leah Culpepper, Sydney Maughon and Skye Medley (shown, swimming in the medley relay Jan. 8) qualified for state at the University of Georgia meet on Saturday. This is the first time a girls relay from HCHS has made state since 2003. Other Raiders closing in on state include the boys 400 freestyle relay team (Joshua Martinez, Samuel Tolbert, Obed Miranda Harrigan and Matt Cochran), which missed their cut by .44 seconds. Raiders swim coach Annette Cochran said Culpepper (100 freestyle) and Matt Cochran (100 breaststroke) are closing in on state-qualifiying times as well.
