Hide AdLorimer got the team off to a fantastic start with the girls in second position at the first change, followed by Abbie, Anna and finally Arnell-Smith, who stood in at the very last minute.
The girls swam really well and finished in 29th - an improvement on their entry position. This was a very good result against extremely strong independent schools, many of whom offer scholarships for their swimming programmes.
It is the first time Bishop Luffa have had a team in the final of this competition and was a day to remember for them.
