After rewriting the league championship meet records two weeks ago and dominating at sectionals a week ago, Sharon’s Feining Huang and Leo Tran along with Franklin sophomore Zack Pecora all won individual state championships over the weekend at MIT’s Zesiger Center.
Huang took home two titles on Saturday while Tran and Pecora each walked away with one on Sunday. Huang won the Division 1 state title in the 200 yard free, touching first in 1:52.19, just ahead of Minnechaug’s Olivia Parent by 1.13 seconds, and added a second state championship by winning the 100 yard backstroke in 55.81. Tran captured the Division 1 state title in the 200 yard free while Pecora finished 2.18 seconds ahead of Haverhill’s Brian Story to win the D1 title in the 200 yard IM. Tran and Pecora finished second and third, respectively in the 500 free behind Minnechaug’s Alexander Parent.
Attleboro’s Samantha Provost secured a pair of top five finishes on Saturday morning, taking fourth in both the 100 fly (59.12) and the 100 free (54.69). Sharon’s Cora Shea took second in the 200 IM.
