York-Adams League coaches select 2022-23 swimming and diving all-stars
The league's top individual swimmers, relay teams and divers have been honored for their best results during the season.
Thomas KendzioraThe York-Adams League has announced its swimming and diving all-stars for the 2022-23 season.
Unlike in most team sports, in which coaches' votes determine all-star selections, these athletes were picked for their times and scores. Each swimmer could only be nominated in a maximum of four events — the most one can compete in during a meet — while divers' top three scores from competitions throughout the season were averaged to determine all-star nods. Times were required to be automatically recorded, and results from any league or postseason meet could be submitted.

Because of the four-event threshold, some swimmers are all-stars in three individual events and one relay, while others split their selections 2-2 or 3-1 in the other direction. Individual all-stars with top times in multiple events include Susquehannock's Jacob Wade and Central York's Christian Henry on the boys' side, as well as Dallastown's Julia Havice and Central's Jayla Eckert for the girls.
Wade, Havice, York Suburban's Chloe Moore and West York diver Taelyn Thomas all earned state medals this year to cap off strong seasons. Wade, a senior, placed fourth in the 50-yard freestyle and fifth in the 100 free, as well as fifth and seventh with the 200 and 400 free relays, respectively, at the PIAA Class 2A meet. Havice finished eighth in the 3A girls' 50 free; Moore placed seventh in the 2A girls' 50 free; and Thomas followed her District 3 Class 2A diving title with a sixth-place showing at states.
Each of the league's division champions is well represented in these all-star selections. The boys' teams from Dallastown and Susquehannock went undefeated in their respective divisions, while girls' D-I co-champs South Western and Central York and D-II winner York Suburban all had several standouts of their own. And with plenty of underclassmen among the honorees, the league's future in the pool is bright.
