One of the best individual swims of the CIF Division 1 finals was turned in by JSerra’s Katie McLaughlin in the 200-yard freestyle. The sophomore broke Olympian Sippy Woodhead’s legendary 1982 O.C. and Division 1 record for Mission Viejo.
Here’s some video of McLaughlin, who mentions how her mother, Mary, swam during the same time as Woodhead

JSerra’s Katie McLaughlin broke the still-drying Orange County record in the 100-yard butterfly with a blast of speed Friday.
The sophomore out of the Mission Viejo Nadadores’ club won the Trinity League title at JSerra with a time of 53.27 seconds, sinking the county record of Ella Eastin of Crean Lutheran earlier this season.
Eastin, also a sophomore, clocked a 53.53 at the Foothill Swim Games to slice the 2007 county record of Tara Thomas of Beckman by one one-hundredth of a second.
JSerra sophomore Kaitlyn Albertoli challenged the county record in 50 freestyle by blasting a 22.91, just 16 one-hundredth of a second off Courtney Cashion’s 2004 standard of 22.75 for Irvine.
Servite has zeroed in on its next football coach. The announcement could come today, maybe Thursday, definitely Friday at the latest.
There were 70 applicants. Paper screening and preliminary talks reduced the pool to four finalists — Servite dean of students and assistant football coach A.J. Gass (and a great player at Servite in the ’90s), and three out-of-area coaches including one from outside of California.
All four were abundantly qualified, or they would not have advanced to the final four.
The opening was created when Troy Thomas decided to return to coaching at Crespi of Encino, his alma mater and where he was coach before he took the Servite job in 2005.
The new coach has one heck of a schedule awaiting him. Here is the Servite football schedule for 2013 …
