In the alumni update published last Saturday about Oak Harbor and Coupeville high school athletes who are competing in college winter sports, Nickerson and Weinstein were inadvertently skipped.

Nickerson, a freshman at Linfield College (McMinnville, Ore.), posted the best times in the 100 and 200 breaststroke for the Wildcats this season and had top-four times in four other events.

She placed 11th in the 100 breaststroke and 12th in the 200 breaststroke at the Northwest Conference championships early this month.

Weinstein, a freshman at the University of Redlands (Redlands, Calif.), swam distance events for the Bulldogs and placed 25th in the 1,600 freestyle in the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference championships.
