Norwalk swimmers Dakota Meyer, Shannon Buttling, Lauren Buttling, Marisa Favano, Caroline Favano and Emma Lenskold helped the Milford school compile 605.5 points and edge Wethersfield, which finished with 553.

It is the first time competing in Class M for Lauralton Hall, which previously competed in Class S.

Meyer, a junior, finished third in the 100 breaststroke and 200 individual medley. She was also also on the 200 medley relay that broke a 17-year-old school record. That relay team finished second.

Buttling, also a junior, competed on the winning 200 free free relay, which broke a school record set last year.

Lauralton will compete in the State Open championships on Nov. 15 at Yale University.
