Boys 100-yard back in WPIAL, PIAA District 7.

0  comments

Pre Race Setting 

Joe Roth, Riverview, Senior, defending champion in the 100 back, record holder, is seeded second. He wears the green cap in the video. He is also a varsity basketball player with more than 2,000 career points and his team is still alive in the state basketball playoffs. Joe set the WPIAL record as a freshman, four years ago. And, he has improved upon it. 

Joe's older brother swims at IUP.

Joe is undecided, so it is said, about where he'll go to college. He wants to continue to swim, not play basketball.
