October 28, 2017

Badger Julia Cummings, the first and only swimmer to date for Bonners Ferry High School, is competing today in the District Swim Meet at the Kroc Center in Coeur d'Alene. On Thursday, she travels with Sandpoint High School to Boise to compete in the Idaho State Meet. A sophomore, Julia is a part-time student with BFHS and part-time with the Idaho Virtual Academy. She began competing in swimming when she was about eight years old, swimming for Carolina Aquatics in Columbia, South Carolina for several years before moving to Bonners Ferry. She competes year-round for the club team with the Sandpoint West Athletic Club under Mike Brosnahan. At the last swim meet on October 21 in Moscow between Moscow, Coeur d'Alene, Lake City, Sandpoint, and BFHS, she placed second in the 100 freestyle and second in the 100 backstroke.
