Saturday, August 26, 2023, was the first swim meet for Springstead and Hernando High Schools at the Hernando County YMCA. Parents lined up waiting to get in to watch the meet, and both coaches, Springstead’s Kara Mance and Hernando’s K. Demitro rushed around preparing their swimmers. Before the women’s 200 medley relay, the official explained directions to the swimmers, and then they were off.
