FEBRUARY 2 - 6, 2015 -- Region and State!
Hi all -
First of all - huge thanks to all of the
swimmers and families who put so much time and energy, and heart and
soul, into the swim season this year. Swimming is a tough sport that
requires a lot of time, and patience, and attention to detail. The
parents have been a fabulous support to the team this year, making it a
better experience for everyone.
Awesome job
at the Region meet! I feel like everyone did the best they could. That
is all I could possibly ask for. Results were better for some than
others, and it is always nicest to end the season on a high, but in any
sport, sometimes things don't go exactly as wished for. I am proud of
all of you. Many of you swam through sickness, and injury, and everyone
sacrificed at times to be a part of the team. Thank you!

Thanks to the Brush, Colgan, and Wright families for breakfasts and bus treats last week.
I
have gone through the State qualifying and made my best guesses. Keep
in mind, I will not be right. I am trying to guess what coaches and
swimmers are thinking. I'm sure I've guessed wrong in some cases. Mark
and I usually compare notes, so I will have his insight to consider
tomorrow. He won't be right about everything either. There could be
ineligible swimmers and invalid times in the lists, or swimmers who quit
the team, or swimmers who won't swim a particular event because they
don't like it, etc. Too many unknown variables, so this is a GUESS.
State entries are due Feb 4th. I will turn in anyone remotely close.
Meghan and Katy need to let me know which two events they want to swim.
