Last week’s Swimmers of the Meet:
- Maddie Day – Maddie had a great meet, dropping about 2 seconds in both of her events, and a good relay split! Maddie has worked hard for 4 years, and it’s great to see her still dropping time.
- Connor Rich – In contrast, Connor is a freshman, and after hardly missing a practice (tied with Madison Dunn for highest attendance percentage on the team) it is fun to finally see him dropping some time in both of his events.
Congratulations to both Maddie and Connor.
