Coming in first in 11 of 12 events and picking up six runner-up finishes paced the International Falls girls swimming and diving team Thursday to a 129-57 dual meet victory over Warroad/Roseau in the FHS pool.

"(Thursday night) was a really fun meet," said Broncos head coach Jill Herzig. "I put a lot of the girls in different events they haven't swum before — events they wanted to try or I wanted to see them swim — and we had some great success and we had some great surprises."

The Falls finished first in every event except the 200-yard individual medley, had 1-2-3 sweeps in two events and went 1-2 in three others.

The Broncos' top short-distance freestyle swimmer, senior Breanna Shofner, won the 50-yard freestyle (26.99 seconds) and also the 200 freestyle (2:16.71).

Shofner was also part of two winning relay teams. She joined Blair Johnson, Claire Herzig and Courtney Klow to win the 200 freestyle relay (1:54.36).

Shofner and Johnson teamed up with Abby Kostiuk and Emma Misner to win the 400 freestyle relay (4:12.25).

Falls' 400 freestyle relay team of Abby Auran, Tayler Hebner, Carolann Stone and Josie Bates placed second in 4:34.42.

Kostiuk, Misner, Claire Herzig and Emily Saari won the 200 medley relay (2:06.6).

Kostiuk won the 100 backstroke (1:06.64) and added a runner-up finish in the 50 freestyle (27.87).

Misner placed first in the 100 butterfly (1:10.06) and came in second in the 200 freestyle (2:19.91).

Saari won one of the dual meet's closest races when she edged out Erin Thompson of Warroad/Roseau by 32 hundredths of a second in the 100 breaststroke (1:17.98).

Klow won the 500 freestyle (6:39.68), while Hebner placed first in the 100 freestyle (1:04.56).

The Broncos' Jessie Hell won the diving competition with 150.7 points.

Auran placed runner-up in both the 200 individual medley (2:45.89) and 100 butterfly (1:17.79), while Claire Herzig added a second-place finish in the 100 freestyle (1:09.72).

The Falls is back in action today at the Iron Range Conference/True Team Meet in Hibbing.

"(In the) IRC we're hoping to be top three," Jill Herzig said. "It's going to be a tall order there with Two Harbors (and) Mesabi East. We have (a meet that includes Grand) Rapids (and) Hibbing — which are going to be really strong — and Two Harbors, and we'd like to knock one of them off so we can be at least third."
