BLUE HILL—A George Stevens Academy junior who has been swimming since she was 8 months old, Ava Sealander finished up her 2016-17 season as Penobscot Valley Conference Female Swimmer of the Year.
Sealander won two events at the PVC championships last month, and scored two third-place finishes at the Class B state championships. She will compete, for the second straight year, at the National Championships in Greensboro, North Carolina, this April.
She also broke all eight GSA individual girls swim team records this season.
“Ava Sealander had some amazing swims,” GSA varsity swim coach Don Driscoll said, and she was a dominant force on a strong girls team that placed eighth in the PVC championships with only six girls.
