Hi Everyone!
Great
meet last Friday. It was so fun to see everyone race. The team won!
This meet was scored like two dual meets – so we got two wins at
once!
Men:
East over Rowland Hall 182-57
East over Hillcrest 141-139 (Eeek!)
Women:
East over Rowland Hall 185-66
East over Hillcrest 162-120
Pretty good, considering most of our
varsity swimmers didn’t swim their best events!
Now that meets have started, you can check
out where our swimmers are placed in 4A (4A Top50), and in Utah overall (Combined
Top50), in times swum in high school meets this year at www.utswimcoach.com. It is from these
lists that state qualifiers are selected at the end of the regular season.
Our meet this week is on Thursday at
Fairmont Aquatic Center. A bus will go to and from
East. Unless a PARENT tells me IN PERSON, at the meet, all swimmers are
expected to ride the bus in both directions.
The bus will leave East at 2:15pm on Thursday outside the gyms on 8th
South. Since the semi-final football
game is that day, school will already be excused. BE ON TIME or you will be
scratched from the meet!
Jodie will be placing one more team suit order on Wednesday, November 11. If you are unhappy with your suit, or want another one, you must email Jodie (snjswanson@msn.com) telling her the style (womens, mens jammer, mens brief) and size and pay the treasurer by Wednesday. No exceptions! We ALL owe Jodie a huge THANK YOU for all her work getting our suits, sweats, and other gear ordered and distributed in time for our first meet. Awesome job!
Looking forward – the November team
activity has be rescheduled for Nov 24th AFTER the Olympus meet.
There is no school the next day (Nov 25), but there WILL BE practice. Details coming…
