Off to a 5-2 start, the Lindbergh girls swim team is looking forward to the meat of its Seamount schedule.

"We're doing great so far," said Lindbergh coach Roger Miron. "We started off the season hot and the kids are starting to get into shape."

The Eagles won their first five meets, before taking on larger teams like 4A Tahoma and 3A Enumclaw. Now Lindbergh has 3A league contenders Kennedy and Hazen coming up in the next few weeks.

Senior Kaitlin Zinsli is leading the way. Zinsli finished second at districts and eighth at state in the 50 free last year.

Other standouts include senior Bailey Faull, plus juniors Abby Chufar and Erica Garl. Those swimmers, plus Chelsey Guhlke all swam at the 2A state meet last year.

Lindbergh finished seventh at the district meet and 24th at the state meet last year.

Lindbergh finishes the regular season Oct. 19 against Archbishop Murphy. The meet is Friday night and senior night for both teams.
