Tiebreaker Gives A.C. Women's Lifeguard Title Over OCBP

The Ocean City Beach Patrol tied Atlantic City with 12 overall points in the Cape-Atlantic Women's Lifeguard Invitational on Wednesday evening, but Atlantic City was awarded the title by merit of a better finish in the doubles row — the tiebreaker in South Jersey lifeguard events.

Cape May (10 points), Ventnor and Sea Isle City (9 points apiece) rounded out the top five patrols.

Erin Curry completed a sweep of every lifeguard competition she entered this summer with a victory in the swim. Curry, who will be a Liberty University sophomore in the fall, caught a wave to stretch her lead over Sea Isle City's Madison Meyer.

Ocean City's Rachel Boudart and Emma Elmer finished fifth in the doubles row, which Atlantic City's Macey Miller and Mallory Sykes won handily. Ocean City's Shawnee Foglio took a fourth in the singles row to add to Ocean City's point total.

Cape May's Patrice Back and Atlantic City's Macey Miller finished one-two in the singles row.

The surf dash team of Carly Wray, Ali Gregory, Jill Smaniotto and Stephanie Hauck finished in second place to seal Ocean City's second-place overall finish.
