2025 Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union State Championships
Nov. 13-14 Iowa City, Iowa SCY (25 yards) ResultsDowling Catholic girls swimming and diving coach Paul Eure wanted his girls to do one thing entering the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union State Championships.
“Our girls really came in ready to fight,” Eure said to the Des Moines Register. “That was kind of the mantra all year was, ‘Let’s put up a fight. We got a meet ahead of us’. Cedar Falls swam great last weekend at the regional meet, so we didn’t know what to really expect this weekend, so our girls were ready.”
Dowling Catholic did more than put up a fight, winning the event easily and successfully defending the state champion it won last year.
The Maroons finished with 340 points, well ahead of runner-up Cedar Falls (264).
Dowling Catholic won going away despite finishing first in just two events.
Sophomore Kimber Corwin won the 200 IM in a personal best time of 2:03.43.
“That was just so exciting to finally do that,” Corwin said to the Des Moines Register. “It’s always been a dream of mine to be up there … on the podium, so it just felt so nice. It felt so rewarding.”
Later, the team of Charlotte Qualley (51.70), Corwin (52.38), Mary Honkamp (51.68) and Sassy Hassett (52.05) won the 400 free relay in 3:27.78.
The individual standouts were Waukee Northwest senior Hayden Bailey, Valley senior Charlee DeJong and Sioux City Metro senior Natalie Patee.
Bailey, who is committed to Iowa State, repeated as champion in both the 100 fly (54.80) and 100 back (personal best 55.64).
DeJong, who has committed to Air Force, swept the sprint freestyle events, taking the 50 free in 23.44 and the 100 free in a personal best time of 51.05.
Patee swam personal best times to win the 200 free (1:49.66) and 500 free (4:55.89).
The other individual winners were Grinnell senior Camryn Russell in 1-meter diving (465.50) and Waterloo West junior Lucy Parson in the 100 breast (1:02.69).
The 200 medley relay was won by the Cedar Falls team of Ella Gardner (26.62), Corrine Rehmer (30.40)t, Leah Mason (24.64) and Taytem Lehmann (23.33) in 1:44.99.
