Performance of the Week: Fraser's Hunter Lemmon
February 14, 2025
Hunter Lemmon ♦ Fraser
Senior ♦ Swimming
Lemmon was named "Senior Swimmer of the Year" at last weekend's Macomb County Championships after setting meet records in winning the 50-yard freestyle and 100 backstroke. Lemmon's 50 time of 21.28 seconds also broke a Fraser school record set previously more than three decades ago, and his 50.63 was nearly six seconds faster than the field. Lemmon also swam the first leg of the winning 200 medley relay and anchored the third-place 400 freestyle relay.
Lemmon's 50 time also is tied for seventh-fastest top time swam in Michigan this high school season, and the backstroke time ranks fifth on that top times list. He'll be seeking his first Finals championship next month, and finished fourth in the backstroke and seventh in the 100 freestyle at last season's Lower Peninsula Division 2 meet. Lemmon finished his football career as Fraser's quarterback in the fall, and he's hoping to continue swimming at the college level. He intends to study sports management and eventually earn a law degree and become an agent.

SAC Sounding Off in 2012-13
September 26, 2012
We get it. We were the students once upon a time as well -- and sometimes, or maybe most of them, you'd much rather hear from one of your peers than another teacher or administrator telling you what's what.
After all, high school athletes are the ones on the fields of competition, the ultimate doers of high school sports. And we've got an impressive group of them representing you this school year -- our 16 members of the MHSAA Student Advisory Council.
Each Tuesday, we'll present a viewpoint from one of our eight seniors or juniors that we hope rings true with many of you. And we encourage our readers, especially students, to comment constructively and add to the conversation.
We'll kick things off next week with Madeleine Martindale, a junior from Lake Orion and one of our first-year council members. To learn more about the Student Advisory Council and this year's members, click for the SAC page on MHSAA.com.
