 The Louisburg Barracudas swim team hit the pool in top form during Saturday’s season opening meet in Paola.It wasn’t much of a test for the Barracudas, who easily took care of the Piranhas 325-164, and several swimmers went home with gold medals. But, maybe none were more decorated than Mason Koechner. Koechner, who swims in the 9- to 10-year-old boys’ division, won five gold medals, including two as a member of the relay teams. Koechner won the 50-yard butterfly in 46.72 seconds and the 50 backstroke in 49.62 seconds. He rounded out his individual golds in the 100-yard individual medley in 1 minute, 39.75 seconds.
