WAUKESHA, Wis. – Edgewood won the Division 2 team title for the eighth year in a row at the 2022 State Division 2 Girls Swimming & Diving Championships at the Waukesha South High School Natatorium Friday.

The Crusaders cruised to the title with 350 points and were crowned champions in six of the 12 events in the meet. Whitefish Bay finished a distant second with 167 points, and Ashwaubenon placed third with 166 points.

Izzy Enz of Edgewood won a meet-high four events, including two individual events and as a member of two relays. She broke the Division 2 record she set last season in the 200-yard freestyle with a time of 1:47.64. It’s her third straight title in the event after she earned the silver medal with a runner-up finish in 2019. Enz also won her third consecutive title in the 500 freestyle, winning the gold this year in a time of 4:49.97. Enz’s teammate Brynn Stacey was the winner in the 100 freestyle, posting a time of 49.83.

The Crusaders swept the three relay events. Enz and Stacey were members of the winning 200 and 400 freestyle relays. They teamed with Sophie Reed and Katie McClure to win the 200 freestyle relay for the eighth consecutive year with a Division 2 record time of 1:34.05.
