Panthers 78, Hawks 10

The Hawks and Panthers had just a combined eight athletes compete during the dual.

"We only had two boys competing," Willems said. "They were focused on their individual times. They're getting faster."

Central Valley's Andy Jacinto placed third in the 50 free and 100 free.

Hawk teammate Jesus Rosalez placed fourth in the 50 free and 100 free.

The Hawks had no entries in the 200 free, 200 IM, 100 fly, 500 free, 100 back, 100 breast, 200 medley relay, 200 free relay and 400 free relay due to their lack of numbers.

Patterson will host Central Valley this Thursday at 3:30 p.m.
