Samantha Joins Weber High Womens SwimTeam

To be the sibling of an accomplished athlete can be a disorienting experience; you compete for recognition at home and cannot escape it in public. But what about when it comes to racing against 4 other girl swimmers of the same family? The Tenney Girls, 5 in total, have long been known for their pool finesse, but the 3rd girl in line-Sammy as she's called, is now racing against her older High School sister and the rest of Weber High School Girls swim team as only a 9th grader in a 3 year Junior High. Very few individuals make the 3year High School sports teams as a 9th grader, but it seems to be the norm for the Tenney Five. One of the reasons why college recruiters have their eyes on both Sammy and her older sister Laney is that both of them played High School Water Polo as well in the unprecedented 8th grade. Laney, even played Co-Ed with the Boys Varsity while only a 9th grader. It seems that the "water" in northern Utah has been made for the Tenney Family. Soon to come up in the ranks are two more other Tenney girls while the oldest Cassey has been retired from the water, she still maintains certifications in all water safety associations and can be found practicing her strokes at the BYU indoor pool. Keep your eyes open this season for exciting races during the swimming season and the soon to follow hard core matches of violent Water Polo.
