JV swimming kicked off the season with a double dual meet against Eaglebrook and Northfield Mount Herman. Deerfield has the largest JV team in recent memory and with two-thirds of the team swimming in their first ever meet, it was an exciting afternoon. Deerfield recorded a number of strong finishes overall including Max Wang’s 2nd place performances in the 200 and 500 Freestyle, Miu Yatsuka speeding to 2nd place in the 50 Freestyle, and Emily Feng taking 2nd place in the 100 Backstroke. Deerfield’s Medley Relay featuring Feng, Yatsuka, Wang, and Isabelle Schwartz took second place, as did the 200 Freestyle Relay with Elena Zhao, Yatsuka, Tony He, and Julia Hioe. At the final tally, Deerfield was defeated by Eaglebrook, but won against Northfield Mount Herman. JV swimming has their next meet at home on January 29 against Eagle Hill and Bancroft.
