Northshore’s boys’ swim team took home third place in the Division I state-swim meet Friday and Saturday at the Sulphur Park and Recreation Aquatic Center.

Jesuit captured the event with 364.50 points, while Catholic High (238) was second. Fontainebleau (175) was fourth and Pineville (161.50) rounded out the top five of 27.
