Fellman and GSC teammate Valerie Peimann (16) tied for the meet’s 15-and-older high-point award.
“Valerie and I have been swimming together for a long time, and she is a really good friend of mine,” Fellman said. “It was incredibly special to get to share the high-point award with her and stand on the podium together. It was the perfect way to go out.”

“My first time going to ASSC was when I was 10 and have been going to state ever since,” Soboleff said. “I love how it gives me opportunities to meet and befriend swimmers from all around Alaska. It gives me the chance to push myself to another level. Even when the competition is not currently happening, I find myself trying harder at practices throughout the year. Even when it is hard it’s nice to think about the races ahead and just getting excited to get to see the progress I’ve made and how the time and effort pays off keeps me going. I love the swimming community and how it opens up so many doors of opportunities to meet other swimmers around the state, and I feel like it’s a community that always supports each other and cheers them on either in or out of the pools. This meet, I was very happy with how I swam because it’s always nice getting to actually see results from the time I put in at the pool and out of the pool. I saw time drops in every event I swam even including events I had just swam at other swim meets not so long ago. This meet in particular was a bit nerve-racking at first because I had decided to sign up for the longer distance events.”
