Great job last night! I had so much fun, I don't know about you guys. We had lots of fast swims, improvements, and a lot of smiles, which is the most important! The other team complimented us on how nice our swimmers were...which I think is an even bigger deal than winning the meet!  Lots of results/details below.

The biggest thing of the night was that James Holder broke our 11-12 boys team record in the 50 breast with a time of 39.97! Wow!

MEET RESULTS

I saw so many things again to highlight last night. We had lots of cheering, helping get younger kids to their lanes, people stepping up to volunteer, and so much more. My goal, and what I care more about than anything, is that we are improving, and we are! Also, we won 417-340!!!

We had a lot of best times last night! I have attached the full results. Lots of kids swam things for the first time ever as well! As we get faster, it is harder to drop a lot of time at once, but we still had a lot of huge drops (see below).

Below I have details for the biggest "loser" and first place finishes.

For every meet we choose a biggest "loser", meaning the person who drops or "loses" the most time. Our biggest loser this week is Ellie Strauss who dropped 49 seconds in her 25 back! Great job!

Other big "losers" (those who dropped 5 or more seconds) are listed below. Congrats to all!
