July 12, 2012

The Michigan High School Athletic Association gains valuable input during the school year from its Student Advisory Council, while providing leadership training to the 16-member group of seniors and juniors representing schools of all sizes from all over the state.

This June, for the second summer, SAC members got a kick start on their upcoming duties by spending two days and a night at Mystic Lake Camp near Farwell.

Fourteen students attended the retreat June 19-20,  The below video includes highlights of the trip and tells a little bit more about the significant roles the council plays.

Senior ♦ Swimming

Eichbrecht finished her high school career last week by completing career Finals sweeps in the 200 and 500-yard freestyles at the Lower Peninsula Division 1 championship meet at Oakland University. She set all-Finals records in both races, swimming a 1:45.05 in her 200 prelim to break the 2007 record set by past Canton star and later Olympic medalist Allison Schmitt. Her 500 prelim time of 4:42.00 broke the 2017 record set by Grand Ledge's Lola Mull.

Eichbrecht went on to swim 1:45.98 in the 200 and 4:42.89 in her championship races to win them by more than 5 and 16 seconds, respectively. She had entered the meet with seed times of 1:45.48 and 4:41.54. She improved on her Finals times from a year ago by three seconds in the 200 and nearly 10 in the 500. Eichbrecht will continue at Indiana, which is coming off a record fourth-place finish at last season's NCAA championship meet.
