The Kemmerer boys’ swim team hosted a swim invitational on Saturday, Jan. 12. Participating teams competing against Kemmerer were Evanston, Lyman and Sublette County.

The Rangers beat Evanston to earn third place at the meet.

The meet was an opportunity for the Rangers to recognize their two seniors, Alvaro de Vicente and Carl Krell. Technically, de Vicente is a junior, but he is a foreign exhange student from Spain, so this is his last year with the Rangers swim team.
