Beavercreek was powered by a pair of state champion relays, both featuring the same four swimmers — junior Luke Sullivan and seniors Michael Rine, Dillon Edge and Ethan Otten.
That four-man team dominated the 400-yard freestyle relay, winning by more than two seconds in a time of 2 minutes, 59.53 seconds. They also won the 200-yard medley relay, out-touching Mason at the wall, 1:30.81 to 1:30.87.
In the individual events, Edge won the 200-yard freestyle in a time of 1:36.16 and placed second in the 100 breaststroke in 54.90.
Rine took second in the 200-yard individual medley in 1:49.37.
Otten placed fourth in the 100-yard freestyle in 45.12, and fifth in the 50 freestyle in 20.58. In the 500 freestyle, Caleb Manning took sixth and Rine was eighth. Sullivan tied for seventh in the 100-yard backstroke.
The past two years, Beavercreek had finished fourth and sixth at the state meet.
