Lane Werth is a junior swimmer at North High School, while he attends Northeast magnet school. Werth said competing for North is a privilege and he enjoys representing both schools. Werth is in his third year of swimming for North High School, but he’s been in the pool much longer than that.
“This will be my third-year swimming for North High and I have been swimming for the Wichita Aqua Shocks for almost six years,” said Werth.
His events are the 200 freestyle, 500 freestyle and 200 backstroke.
“I love that I I’m friends and get along with all my teammates in and out of the water, they push me to be my very best at practice and during a meet. Even if I do bad in a race, they’re there to keep pushing me and to keep me motivated,” said Werth.
Werth will graduate in the spring of 2022, but he’s still working out his plans for life after high school.
“I haven’t quite figured out what I want to do for college but would maybe like to do something involving engineering or science. But I would like to continue swimming throughout college,” said Werth.
